PG - 1137-1150 LID - 10.4158/EP-2019-0011 [doi] AB - Objective: To explore the association of excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) defined by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) targets and adverse perinatal outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) pregnancies, and whether a modified target might be related to a lower rate of adverse perinatal outcomes for GDM. Methods: This retrospective cohort study involved 1,138 women of normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and 1,200 women with GDM. Based on the IOM target, pregnancies were classified to appropriate GWG (aGWG), inadequate GWG, and excessive GWG (eGWG). Modified GWG targets included: upper limit of IOM target minus 1 kg (IOM-1) or 2 kg (IOM-2), both upper and lower targets minus 1 kg (IOM-1-1) or 2 kg (IOM-2-2). Results: The proportions of women achieving eGWG were 26.3% in NGT and 31.2% in GDM (P = .036); in comparison, for aGWG NGT, the risks of large for gestational age (LGA) were significantly higher in eGWG NGT (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 1.47; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02 to 2.13), aGWG GDM (adjusted OR 1.42; 95% CI 1.03 to 1.95), and eGWG GDM (adjusted OR 2.70; 95% CI 1.92 to 3.70). GDM pregnancies gaining aGWG based on the modified GWG targets (IOM-2, IOM-1-1, and IOM-2-2) had a lower prevalence of LGA and macrosomia delivery than that for similar pregnancies using the original IOM target (all P<.05). Conclusion: For aGWG GDM according to the IOM target, adhering to a more stringent weight control was associated with decreased adverse outcomes. A tighter IOM target might help to reduce the prevalence of adverse pregnancy outcomes.
