Brief Summary  
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the leading causes for maternal morbidity. It is a
major public health problem in India with a high prevalence rate of 4.6% to 14%. GDM typically
diagnosed from 24 weeks of gestation. Early diagnosis and prediction are vital, as it can improve
the antenatal care and thus prevents the adverse perinatal outcomes like macrosomia,
shoulder dystocia, stillbirths by lifestyle interventions commenced in early pregnancy (<=20
weeks). Placental growth factor (PlGF) which is a placenta-derived angiogenic protein, is
involved in the regulation of placental vascular development. Studies show that there is an
increase in placenta derived growth factor (PlGF) in Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) due to
a compensatory angiogenic mechanism in response to hyperglycemia induced placental
hypoxia. So, in our study we are investigating whether Placental growth factor (PlGF) value in
first trimester predicts the occurrence of Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Low-grade
chronic inflammation is associated with various obstetric complications such as preterm birth,
preeclampsia, and gestational diabetes mellitus. Platelets indices such as Mean platelet volume
(MPV), plateletcrit (PCT), platelet distribution width (PDW) plays important role in blood
coagulation and inflammatory process. Also, CBC parameters such as neutrophil lymphocyte
ratio (NLR) have been studied to predict Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), hence we are
trying to create a prediction model for GDM using these parameters.
