Abstract
Objective: To examine the association of adverse outcomes among parturients with large for gestational age (LGA; birth weight ≥ 90th) newborns, stratified by diabetes status. Additionally, we described the temporal trends of adverse outcomes among LGA neonates.
Study design: This retrospective cohort study used the U.S. Vital Statistics dataset between 2014 and 2020. The inclusion criteria were singleton, nonanomalous LGA live births who labored and delivered at 24 to 41 weeks with known diabetes status. The coprimary outcomes were composite neonatal adverse outcomes of the following: Apgar score < 5 at 5 minutes, assisted ventilation > 6 hours, seizure, or neonatal or infant mortality, and maternal adverse outcomes of the following: maternal transfusion, ruptured uterus, unplanned hysterectomy, admission to intensive care unit, or unplanned procedure. Multivariable Poisson regression models were used to estimate adjusted relative risks (aRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Average annual percent change (AAPC) was calculated to assess changes in rates of LGA and morbidity over time.
Results: Of 27 million births in 7 years, 1,843,467 (6.8%) met the inclusion criteria. While 1,656,888 (89.9%) did not have diabetes, 186,579 (10.1%) were with diabetes. Composite neonatal adverse outcomes (aRR = 1.48, 95% CI = 1.43, 1.52) and composite maternal adverse outcomes (aRR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.36, 1.38) were significantly higher among individuals with diabetes, compared with those without diabetes. From 2014 to 2020, the LGA rate was stable among people without diabetes. However, there was a downward trend of LGA in people with diabetes (AAPC = - 2.4, 95% CI = - 3.5, -1.4).
Conclusion: In pregnancies with LGA newborns, composite neonatal and maternal morbidities were higher in those with diabetes, compared with those without diabetes.
Key points: · Large for gestational age stratified by diabetes status.. · Composite neonatal and maternal adverse outcomes are worse among individuals with diabetes as compared to those without.. · During 2014 to 2020, the trend of LGA in individuals without diabetes increased..
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Perinatology is an international, peer-reviewed, and indexed journal publishing 14 issues a year dealing with original research and topical reviews. It is the definitive forum for specialists in obstetrics, neonatology, perinatology, and maternal/fetal medicine, with emphasis on bridging the different fields.
The focus is primarily on clinical and translational research, clinical and technical advances in diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment as well as evidence-based reviews. Topics of interest include epidemiology, diagnosis, prevention, and management of maternal, fetal, and neonatal diseases. Manuscripts on new technology, NICU set-ups, and nursing topics are published to provide a broad survey of important issues in this field.
All articles undergo rigorous peer review, with web-based submission, expedited turn-around, and availability of electronic publication.
The American Journal of Perinatology is accompanied by AJP Reports - an Open Access journal for case reports in neonatology and maternal/fetal medicine.
