Abstract


Introduction Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common complication during pregnancy associated with various maternal and fetal health risks.Autonomic dysfunction has been implicated in the pathophysiology of several metabolic disorders, yet its role in GDM remains unclear.Utilizing data from a diverse cohort of patients, we assessed various autonomic function parameters, including heart rate variability, in both GDM and non-GDM groups.This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the physiological mechanisms underlying GDM and may inform future clinical interventions aimed at improving maternal and fetal outcomes.


Methods This study investigates the autonomic function differences between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) patients and non-GDM patients.We employed a cross-sectional design to compare autonomic function parameters through HRV between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) patients and non-GDM patients which were screened through DIPSI criteria.


Results Our findings reveal significant differences in autonomic function between the two groups, suggesting potential implications for the management and understanding of GDM. The study included a total of 51 participants, with 13 in the GDM group and 38 in the non-GDM group.GCT results were significantly higher in the GDM group compared to the non-GDM group, consistent with the diagnosis of GDM.


Conclusion our findings highlight the presence of autonomic dysfunction in GDM patients, characterized by reduced HRV and altered sympatho-vagal balance.
