The 50-g glucose challenge test and pregnancy outcome in a multiethnic Asian population at high risk for gestational diabetes
Objective: To evaluate the 50-g glucose challenge test (GCT) on pregnancy outcome in a multiethnic Asian population at high risk for gestational diabetes (GDM). Methods: GCT was positive if the 1-hour plasma glucose level was >= 7.2 mmol/L. GDM was diagonsed by a 75-g glucose tolerance test using...
