| Abstrakt: | The article discusses the increase in the percentage of pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Topics include the long-term risk of developing type 2 diabetes in women with a history of GDM, the need for closer clinical follow-up for the diagnosis and treatment of patients who develop diabetes early in the postpartum period, and the higher risk factors for postpartum clinical attrition among Haspanic/Latin and African/American patients. |
