Results are presented as mean (SD). Only observed values (i.e., preimputation) are included. Values obtained during visits in which participants were excluded per protocol are omitted. P (PP) refers to the P value obtained from a paired t test that compares the value of a given measure (e.g., fasting glucose) at a given visit with that at the postpartum visit within the same group of participants. P (NG) refers to the P value obtained from a two-sample t test that compares the value of a given measure at a particular visit for a given subgroup with that for the no GDM subgroup. There is no P value for the rows and columns corresponding to the mid-late pregnancy visit for early GDM, as very few of these individuals attended those visits, per protocol. Insulin values were log transformed prior to performing t tests and obtaining P values. Mean and SD insulin values are presented prior to transformation.
