This study demonstrates a positive association between exposure to PM<sub>2.5</sub> and its constituents and the risk of GDM. Specifically, exposure to NO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>, NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>, and OM was particularly associated with an increased risk of GDM. The present study contributes to a better understanding of the effects of exposure to PM<sub>2.5</sub> and its constituents on the risk of GDM.
