Obstructive Sleep Apnea Is Associated with Newly Diagnosed Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Open accessAbstract
Abstract Rationale Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, including gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). GDM is a significant cause of maternal and infant morbidities. Assessing these risk factors concurrently may facilitate both the identification of women at GDM risk and the initiation of GDM prevention strategies. Objectives To investigate whether SDB events, including SDB in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and other sleep parameters, are associated with increased risk of GDM and to evaluate the performance of the models investigating associations between breathing and sleep parameters and GDM risk. Methods In this case–control study, 46 women with newly diagnosed GDM and 46 healthy control subjects, who were individually matched for age, gestational age, body mass index, race, and parity, completed overnight polysomnographic studies and sleep questionnaires after being screened for GDM during the late-second to mid-third trimesters. Conditional logistic regression analysis was used to identify models investigating associations between risk factors and GDM risk. The Bayesian information criterion (BIC) was employed to compare models; the model with the lowest BIC is preferred. Results Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA; defined as an apnea–hypopnea index [AHI] >5 events/h) was present in 22% of subjects with GDM and 9% of control subjects (P < 0.001). Women with OSA had a higher GDM risk (odds ratio [OR], 4.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05–21.04). In individual models, GDM risk was also significantly higher among women with higher overall AHI (events/h OR, 1.81; 95% CI, 1.01–3.27), higher AHI in REM (events/h OR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.02–4.31), higher oxygen desaturation index greater than or equal to 4% (ODI4; events/h OR, 2.21; 95% CI, 1.03–4.73), and higher Sleep Apnea Symptom Score (OR, 2.72; 95% CI, 1.11–6.69). The percentage of non-REM sleep was significantly associated with decreased risk of GDM (percentage of non-REM sleep OR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.78–0.99). The BIC supports the conclusion that there is a strong association between AHI in REM and GDM risk compared with the other significant models. Conclusions SDB events, including REM-related OSA, are linked to increased GDM risk. GDM risk is also influenced by intercorrelated sleep variables.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
