Gestational diabetes in South African women with HIV and HIV-seronegative women: Results from the ORCHID cohort
GDM prevalence in South Africa is similar to North America/Europe. Early GDM was diagnosed in a large majority of women who also exhibited features of poorer insulin sensitivity and beta cell function than those diagnosed late in pregnancy or without GDM. WWH had lower GDM risk than HIV-seronegative women. Future studies to understand the implications of early GDM in African populations are warranted.
