Serum uric acid in early pregnancy and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus: A cohort study of 85,609 pregnant women

We found higher serum UA at 13-18 gestational weeks was a risk factor for GDM. Our findings provide new evidence for the role of serum UA in the prevention and early intervention of GDM, and highlighted the need for monitoring serum UA at 13-18 gestational weeks.
