The relationship between maternal glucose concentrations, gestational diabetes mellitus, placental weight, and placental vascular malperfusion lesions: A retrospective study of a U.S. pregnancy cohort

GDM and high glucose concentrations without GDM were associated with heavier placentas. Patients with GDM had a higher risk of delayed villous maturation, but risk of other placental lesions was similar.
