Popis: Background: High-performance parallel next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows for identification of various maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) subtypes also during pregnancy. As this method is expensive and time-consuming, it has proposed to use various predictors for the diagnosis of mutation in the hexokinase (GCK)/MODY2 gene, helping to select the patients for subsequent molecular genetic testing. Hyperglycemia due to MODY2 is commonly newly diagnosed during pregnancy; therefore, there is a search for factors specific to this mutation in pregnant women.Aim: To evaluate blood glucose variability in pregnant women with newly diagnosed hyperglycemia at early gestation and to determine the threshold value of the glycemic variability coefficient for pregnant women with a mutation in the GCK/MODY2 gene.Materials and methods: This observational single center study included 41 pregnant women with newly diagnosed early hyperglycemia (not meeting the criteria for manifest diabetes mellitus). Molecular genetic testing was performed in all of them. According to its results, they were retrospectively categorized into two groups: with early gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM, no mutations) and with hyperglycemia related to a mutation in the GCK/MODY2 gene. A comparative analysis of glycemic variability in the two groups was performed. Sensitivity and specificity of the cutoff value for the coefficient of variability as a diagnostic marker of MODY2 were also calculated.Results: The pregnant women with GDM had significantly higher age and body mass index (BMI) than those with MODY2 (p
