Combination of body mass index and body fat percentage in middle and late pregnancy to predict pregnancy outcomes in patients with gestational diabetes in Wenzhou, China: a single-centre retrospective cohort study
The results suggest that patients with GDM with BFP ≥33% were more likely to experience unfavourable pregnancy outcomes, undergo caesarean section and develop macrosomia. The combination of BMI with classified BFP could better predict abnormal blood pressure and caesarean section in patients with GDM during the middle and late stages of pregnancy.
