Abstract: The article presents updates on an ongoing randomized treatment trial for mild gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). It says that the trial compares perinatal outcomes in those receiving diet therapy and insulin as required versus those randomized to no specific treatment. It states that the study aims to clarify whether there is utility in identifying and treating women with a normal fasting glucose level who meet standard criteria for GDM.
