Abstract

Aim. Analysis of the possibilities of predicting gestational diabetes mellitus in early pregnancy in obese women. Key points. The incidence of obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus among the female population in the world is steadily increasing. Obesity is an independent risk factor for gestational diabetes. Diabetes mellitus, which occurred during pregnancy, is associated with a number of complications for both the mother and the fetus. The presented literature review summarizes modern ideas about the prognosis of gestational diabetes mellitus in early pregnancy in obese women. Data on the effectiveness of various prognostic factors of gestational diabetes are presented. Conclusion. To date, both clinical and laboratory predictors of gestational diabetes are known, but there are no regulated criteria for its diagnosis in the early stages of pregnancy. There is a need to conduct large-scale studies in order to select the most significant predictors of this disease in obese women and introduce them into the practical activities of an obstetrician-gynecologist. Keywords: prediction, gestational diabetes mellitus, obesity.
