Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the applicability of the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) interim guidelines for twin pregnancies to the specific population of gestational diabetes mellitus by exploring the relationship between gestational weight gain and adverse pregnancy outcomes in Chinese twin-pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus. STUDY DESIGN This was a retrospective cohort study of women diagnosed with diabetes in pregnancy between July 2017 and December 2020 at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Chongqing, China. The primary variable of interest was maternal total gestational weight gain. The primary outcomes were perinatal outcomes, which included: preeclampsia, small for gestational age, large for gestational age, low birth weight, neonatal pneumonia, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, and neonatal intensive unit admission, etc. The association between inappropriate gestational weight gain and adverse pregnancy outcomes was estimated using multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS A total of 455 twin-pregnant women who had gestational diabetes mellitus were analyzed. Women with low gestational weight gain had reduced risk of preeclampsia (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.32; 95% CI or confidence interval, 0.17-0.63; p = 0.001) and their infants had higher risks of small for gestational age (aOR, 1.93; 95% CI, 1.04-3.58; p = 0.037), low birth weight (aOR, 2.27; 95% CI, 1.32-3.90; p = 0.003), neonatal intensive unit admission (aOR, 3.29; 95% CI, 1.10-5.78; p = 0.038), pneumonia (aOR, 2.41; 95% CI, 1.08-5.33; p = 0.031), and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (aOR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.10-4.78; p = 0.027); the infants of women with excessive gestational weight gain had a higher risk of large for gestational age (aOR, 3.76; 95% CI, 1.42-9.96; p = 0.008). CONCLUSION Gestational weight gain controlled within the range recommended by the NAM could reduce the risk of perinatal adverse outcomes. The 2009 NAM gestational weight gain recommendations can be used for Chinese twin-pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus. KEY POINTS · Inappropriate gestational weight gain can lead to adverse perinatal outcomes in twin pregnancies.. · Gestational weight gain controlled within recommended range could reduce the risk of poor perinatal outcomes.. · The National Academy of Medicine recommendations are suitable for Chinese twin-pregnant women with GDM..

Associations between gestational weight gain and adverse neonatal outcomes: a comparison between the US and the Chinese guidelines in Chinese women with twin pregnancies. BMC Public Health 2023; 23:134. [PMID: 36658532 PMCID: PMC9850551 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-15008-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Appropriate gestational weight gain (GWG) is essential for maternal and fetal health. For twin pregnancies among Caucasian women, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) guidelines can be used to monitor and guide GWG. We aimed to externally validate and compare the IOM guidelines and the recently released guidelines for Chinese women with twin pregnancies regarding the applicability of their recommendations on total GWG (TGWG). METHOD A retrospective cohort study of 1534 women who were aged 18-45 years and gave birth to twins at ≥ 26 gestational weeks between October 2016 and June 2020 was conducted in Guangzhou, China. Women's TGWG was categorized into inadequate, optimal, and excess per the IOM and the Chinese guidelines. Multivariable generalized estimating equations logistic regression was used to estimate the risk associations between TGWG categories and adverse neonatal outcomes. Cohen's Kappa coefficient was calculated to evaluate the agreement between the IOM and the Chinese guidelines. RESULTS Defined by either the IOM or the Chinese guidelines, women with inadequate TGWG, compared with those with optimal TGWG, demonstrated higher risks of small-for-gestational-age birth and neonatal jaundice, while women with excess TGWG had a higher risk of delivering large-for-gestational-age infants. The agreement between the two guidelines was relatively high (Kappa coefficient = 0.721). Compared with those in the optimal TGWG group by both sets of the guidelines, women classified into the optimal group by the Chinese guidelines but into the inadequate group by the IOM guidelines (n = 214) demonstrated a statistically non-significant increase in the risk of all the adverse neonatal outcomes combined. CONCLUSIONS The IOM and the Chinese guidelines are both applicable to Chinese women with twin pregnancies.

Abstract
Singleton pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at an increased risk of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. Multiple pregnancies are associated with increased risks of perinatal complications; however, the impact of GDM on maternal and neonatal outcomes in multiple pregnancies is unknown, and there are currently few reports on GDM status in twin pregnancies. This study aimed to compare the background and perinatal outcomes between Japanese twin pregnancies with and without GDM at a perinatal center in Japan. Additionally, the clinical course of GDM was investigated. In this retrospective cohort study, women with twin pregnancies underwent GDM screening at Yokohama City University Medical Center from January 2011 to December 2016. Overall, 307 twin pregnancies were divided into GDM (47 cases, 15.3%) and non-GDM (260 cases, 84.7%) groups. GDM-associated pregnancy complications, GDM status, and pregnancy outcomes were ascertained. Women with GDM were older and had a higher pre-pregnancy body mass index than those without GDM. Glycemic control was good in all patients, and there was no difference in delivery outcomes between the two groups. Gestational weight gain was lower in pregnant women with GDM (+8.0 kg) than in those without GDM (+11.8 kg), suggesting the impact of strict nutritional guidance on twin pregnancies with GDM. In conclusion, twin pregnancies with GDM did not have different delivery outcomes compared to those without GDM. To manage twin pregnancies with GDM, this study suggests that it is important to monitor patients' weight and blood glucose levels.

[PMID: 36222213 PMCID: PMC9749591 DOI: 10.1111/mcn.13436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this paper is to describe gestational weight gain (GWG), to assess the applicability of the 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM) guidelines, and to derive a GWG adequacy classification within a French cohort. We included twins from the national, prospective, population-based JUmeaux MODe d'Accouchement (JUMODA) cohort study (2014-2015). Following the IOM approach, we selected a 'standard' population of term pregnancies with 'optimal' birthweight (≥2500 g; n = 2562). GWG adequacy (insufficient; adequate; excessive) was defined using IOM recommendations (normal body mass index [BMI]: 16.8-24.5 kg [also utilized for underweight BMI]; overweight: 14.1-22.7 kg; obese: 11.4-19.1 kg). Additionally, using the IOM approach, we determined the 25th and 75th percentiles of GWG in our standard population to create a JUMODA-derived GWG adequacy classification. GWG and GWG adequacy were described, overall and by BMI and parity. In the JUMODA standard population of term twin livebirths with optimal birthweight, mean GWG was 16.1 kg (standard deviation 6.3). Using IOM recommendations, almost half (46.5%) of the women had insufficient and few (10.0%) had excessive GWG, with similar results regardless of BMI or parity. The 25th and 75th percentiles of GWG in the JUMODA standard population (underweight: 13-21 kg; normal weight: 13-20 kg; overweight: 11-19 kg; obese: 7-16 kg) were lower than the IOM recommendations. The IOM recommendations classified a relatively high percentage of French women as having insufficient and a low percentage as having excessive GWG. Additional research to evaluate recommendations in relation to adverse perinatal outcomes is needed to determine whether the IOM recommendations or the JUMODA-derived classification is more appropriate for French twin gestations.

Abstract
Background: The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has provisional gestational weight gain (GWG) guidelines for women pregnant with twins due to limited data in this population. To better inform guidelines, the objective of this systematic review was to build on prior work and examine recent data on the associations of GWG with maternal and child health in twin pregnancies. Materials and Methods: In February 2021, Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library were searched. Observational studies were eligible if published from January 1, 2013 through February 23, 2021, and examined associations of GWG with maternal or child health outcomes after accounting for gestational age at delivery and pre-pregnancy body mass index. Heterogeneity across studies precluded the use of meta-analytic methods. Results: A total of 29 studies were included. For maternal outcomes, excessive GWG was associated with an increased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy; whereas studies examining gestational diabetes and delivery method reported mixed findings. For child outcomes, inadequate GWG was associated with lower birthweight, small for gestational age, and preterm birth. Adequate or excessive GWG was associated with later gestational age at delivery. Conclusions: This study advances an earlier review by including a more diverse array of maternal and child outcomes. Many of the limitations noted in the original review persist; for example, no studies examined the associations of GWG and outcomes beyond birth. Although it appears that GWG within the IOM guidelines is associated with more optimal outcomes, additional methodologically rigorous studies are needed to better inform evidence-based guidelines.
