摘要
Objective: To examine the rate of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) prevalence before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results: Analysis revealed that GDM prevalence was significantly higher during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to pre-pandemic (8.59 % vs 7.77 %). The risk of GDM was 12 % higher during the pandemic vs. prepandemic (aRR = 1.12, 95 % CI 1.06, 1.19) and the aRD = 0.95 % (95 % CI 0.56 %, 1.33 %) adjusting for maternal age and substance use in pregnancy. Conclusions: GDM rates in WV increased from the period directly before the COVID-19 pandemic to during the COVID-19 pandemic. More research is needed to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms of pandemics and pandemic-related risk factors for this observed association. Supporting pregnant individuals during such events is critical to both maternal and child health.
