Dépistage précoce du diabète gestationnel

The changes in clinical characteristics of pregnant women and an increase in the prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) warrant the importance of screening as early as possible in order to possibly prevent short and long-term complications in both the mother and fetus. GDM screening is recommended at 24-28 weeks of pregnancy, using a 50g glucose challenge test (GCT) although women with multiple risk factors are expected to be assessed “early” in pregnancy, a recommendation poorly followed. Most importantly, there is no universal agreement currently in place for GDM screening, particularly during the first trimester of pregnancy. Objectives. 1) To define the cut-off value of GCT during the first trimester in order to predict GDM diagnosed at 24-28 weeks of gestation with optimal sensitivity and specificity using ROC curve. 2) To determine if GCT during the first trimester of pregnancy is an independent predictor of GDM diagnosed at 24-28 weeks gestation. Methods. This is a prospective cohort study. Women were recruited at their first prenatal visit. Inclusion factors were: age ≥ 18 years and gestational age between 6 and 13 weeks from their last menstrual period. GCT were performed at the first prenatal visit. The second visit was scheduled at 24-28 weeks for the diagnostic 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). GDM diagnosis was made in accordance with the American Diabetes Association guidelines. A variety of statistical analysis including multivariate logistic regression models and ROC curve were used to address the aims of the study. Results. Participants (n=1180, age: 28.2±4.4 years, BMI: 25.2±5.5 kg/m[superscript 2]) underwent GCT at 9.1±2.0 weeks and OGTT at 26.5±1.1 weeks of gestation. GDM was diagnosed in 100 (8.4%) women. The cut-off value of 5.6 mmol/L predicted GDM with 84.1% (75.4-92.7) sensitivity, 62.3% (59.5-65.1) specificity, while the positive predictive value was 0.121 (0.091-0.150) and the negative predictive value was 0.985 (0.975-0.994). This 5.6 value was independently associated with GDM (OR=2.806, 95% CI: 1.98-3.97, p<0.001). Compared to other risk factors, GCT was the strongest independent predictor of GDM (OR=1.767, 95% CI: 1.52-2.05, p<0.001). Conclusions. The cut-off value of 5.6 mmol/L has the optimal sensitivity and specificity for the GCT during the first trimester to predict GDM at 24-28 weeks of gestation according to ADA guidelines. GCT during the first trimester is the strongest independent predictor of GDM at 24-28 weeks of gestation.
