(Summary description)Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common pregnancy complications. Most of the glucose metabolism of GDM patients can return to normal after delivery, but the probability of developing type II diabetes will increase in the future. The clinical manifestations of pregnant women with gestational diabetes are complicated, and both the mother and the fetus are at risk, and clinical attention should be paid to it.

At present, in order to diagnose gestational diabetes, pregnant women between 24-28 weeks of gestation generally should undergo a sugar screening test. However, with the progress of research, it is found that placental growth factor (PLGF) may be able to indicate the occurrence of gestational diabetes.
