Gestational diabetes mellitus in previous pregnancy associated with the risk of large for gestational age and macrosomia in the second pregnancy.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Since the implementation of China's new birth policy, the incidence of large for gestational age (LGA) and macrosomia associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has increased. It remains unclear whether a history of GDM in a previous pregnancy raises the risk of LGA or macrosomia in Chinese women planning two or more pregnancies. Aim: To analyze the association between previous GDM and the risk of LGA and macrosomia in second pregnancy. Method: A retrospective study was conducted on a cohort of 3,131 women who had experienced two consecutive singleton births. The incidences of LGA and macrosomia in the second pregnancy were compared between women with and without previous GDM. The relationship between previous GDM and the occurrence of LGA and macrosomia was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression and stratified analysis. Results: The incidence of LGA and macrosomia during the second pregnancy was significantly higher in women with previous GDM (22.67% and 10.25%, respectively) compared to those without prior GDM (15.34% and 5.06%, respectively) (P < 0.05). After adjusting for potential confounders, previous GDM was significantly associated with LGA (aOR: 1.511, 95% CI: 1.066-2.143) and macrosomia (aOR: 1.854, 95% CI: 1.118-3.076) in the second pregnancy. Stratified analysis revealed that these associations were present only in women without previous LGA, those with GDM, appropriate gestational weight gain (AGWG), non-advanced maternal age, and male newborns during the second pregnancy ( Conclusion: Previous GDM is strongly linked to LGA and macrosomia in subsequent pregnancies. However, this relationship is influenced by GWG, prior LGA history, fetal sex, and maternal age. Managing weight alone may not sufficiently reduce the risk of LGA or macrosomia for women with a history of GDM.
