Description
Sathaphone Inthavong and colleagues test whether a routine early blood value can predict gestational diabetes. Three hundred two Thai women gave blood in the first three months and were checked for the condition months later. Their 2026 study takes place at a single large hospital.
Nearly a third got gestational diabetes, and they were older, heavier, and more often from diabetic families. Their early glycated hemoglobin already ran much higher than peers'. Alone, the marker worked only so-so as a test. Adding age and body mass index made prediction much sharper, enough, the authors suggest, to flag women for early lifestyle help.
