- Abstract: Aims and Methods: In low- and middle- income countries (LMICs) consequences of gestational diabetes (GDM) is understudied. Using a prospective cohort of mothers (n = 197)and children (n = 251), from rural north-eastern Tanzania, we assessed prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence six years after a pregnancy with/without GDM.
Results: The prevalence of prediabetes (49.4 % vs. 46.4 %) orT2D (20.0 % vs. 16.1 %), p ≥ 0.36, based on fasting plasma glucose (FPG) or HbA1clevels (prediabetes: 16.9 % vs. 13.8 % and T2D 1.2 % vs. 0 %, p = 0.47), andcardio-metabolic health parameters,weresimilar between women with/without previous GDM. These results were supported by similar perinatal outcomes and child health at follow-up.The overall prevalence ofprediabetes/T2D was high, but no differences in other cardio-metabolic risk markers were observed in women with prediabetes/T2D compared to women with normal glucose tolerance.
Conclusions: Despite high prevalence of GDM amongTanzanian women, the diagnosis was not associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, nor with increased risk of prediabetes or T2D at follow-up. FPG and HbA1c may be poor markers for diabetes in this population, and further follow-up studies with longer time intervals are warranted to evaluate which GDM diagnostic criteria are most optimal for women in rural Tanzania and similar LMIC settings.
