Gestational diabetes mellitus vitamin D pregnancy advanced maternal age.
Our study aimed to determine the vitamin D level of pregnant women was associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and whether maternal age affects this. This cohort study retrospectively examined the electronic records of 200 pregnant women. The patients were divided into two groups: the GDM group (n: 35) as the case group and the healthy group (n: 165) as the control group. Pregnant women aged 19-44 years were included in the study. Vitamin D levels are deficient <12 ng/mL, insufficient 12-20 ng/mL, and sufficient >20 ng/mL. Results found a statistically significant association between vitamin D level and GDM in women (p <0.05). The vitamin D level in the GDM group (M=16.19; SD=5.59) was lower than vitamin D level in controls (M=25.48; SD=10.01). The percentage of women whose vitamin D was within the sufficient range in GDM was 11% compared to 63% of healthy pregnant women. There was no statistically significant association between age and GDM (p>0.05). Results showed that the vitamin D levels in the GDM group was significantly lower than in the control group.
