The Placenta in Gestational Diabetes: An Integrated Review on Metabolic Pathways, Genetic, Epigenetic and Ultrasound Biomarkers for Clinical Perspectives.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Pregnancies complicated by diabetes, including pregestational and gestational diabetes mellitus, are associated with increased maternal and fetal morbidity. Early identification of at-risk pregnancies is crucial for timely intervention and improved outcomes. Emerging evidence highlights the interplay of genetic predisposition, epigenetic modifications, and non-invasive biomarkers in the early detection of diabetic pregnancies. Genetic factors influencing insulin signaling, glucose metabolism, and pancreatic β-cell function may contribute to susceptibility to gestational hyperglycemia. Concurrently, epigenetic alterations, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications in maternal and placental tissues, have been linked to dysregulated metabolic pathways and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Non-invasive biomarkers, including circulating cell-free DNA and microRNAs in maternal blood, show promise for early diagnosis by offering a safer and more practical alternative to invasive testing. Integrating genetic, epigenetic, and molecular marker data could enhance risk stratification and enable personalized monitoring and management strategies. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the molecular underpinnings of diabetic pregnancies, evaluates the potential of emerging biomarkers for early diagnosis, and discusses the challenges and future perspectives for translating these findings into clinical practice. Understanding these mechanisms may pave the way for precision medicine approaches, ultimately improving maternal and neonatal outcomes in pregnancies affected by diabetes.
