Gestational diabetes: update on screening, diagnosis and maternal management.
Review in Australian prescriber, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Gestational diabetes is common and increasing in prevalence in Australia. New Australasian consensus recommendations released in June 2025 include higher diagnostic thresholds for gestational diabetes and guidance on early pregnancy screening. Women with risk factors for hyperglycaemia in pregnancy are recommended to have glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) measured in the first trimester. Women with a previous history of gestational diabetes or a first-trimester HbA1c of 6.0 to 6.4% should undergo a pregnancy oral glucose tolerance test (POGTT) before 20 weeks gestation. All pregnant women without early gestational diabetes or existing diabetes should undergo a POGTT at 24 to 28 weeks gestation. Insulin remains the mainstay of pharmacological therapy. Metformin may have a role, but its use should be evaluated on an individual basis. Other non-insulin antihyperglycaemic therapies are contraindicated in pregnancy. Gestational diabetes is a significant risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and long-term surveillance is indicated.
