Description
Summary:Background Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a prevalent pregnancy complication during pregnancy. We aimed to evaluate a risk prediction model of GDM based on traditional and genetic factors.Methods A total of 2744 eligible pregnant women were included. Face-to-face questionnaire surveys were conducted to gather general data. Serum test results were collected from the laboratory information system. Independent risk factors for GDM were identified using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. A GDM risk prediction model was constructed and evaluated with the Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, goodness-of-fit calibration plot, receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve.Results Among traditional factors, age ≥30 years, family history, GDM history, impaired glucose tolerance history, systolic blood pressure ≥116.22 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure ≥74.52 mmHg, fasting plasma glucose ≥5.0 mmol/L, 1-hour postprandial blood glucose ≥8.8 mmol/L, 2-h postprandial blood glucose ≥7.9 mmol/L, total cholesterol ≥4.50 mmol/L, low-density lipoprotein ≥2.09 mmol/L and insulin ≥11.5 mIU/L were independent risk factors for GDM. Among genetic factors, 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs2779116, rs5215, rs11605924, rs7072268, rs7172432, rs10811661, rs2191349, rs10830963, rs174550, rs13266634 and rs11071657) were identified as potential predictors of the risk of postpartum DM among women with GDM history, collectively accounting for 3.6% of the genetic risk.Conclusions Both genetic and traditional factors contribute to the risk of GDM in women, operating through diverse mechanisms. Strengthening the risk prediction of SNPs for postpartum DM among women with GDM history is crucial for maternal and child health protection.
