| Variables | pGDM group | Control group | t | p |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| n | 48 | 48 | – | – |
| MBG (mmol/L) | 6.5 ± 0.9 | 5.9 ± 0.8 | 2.967 | 0.004 |
| SDBG (mmol/L) | 1.3 ± 0.3 | 0.9 ± 0.2 | 6.169 | 0.000 |

| MAGE (mmol/L) | 2.7 ± 0.4 | 1.8 ± 0.5 | 8.696 | 0.000 |
| AUCpp (mmol/L·h) | 26.8 ± 3.4 | 19.2 ± 3.2 | 11.267 | 0.000 |
Normally distributed values in the table are given as the mean ± SD
pGDM group: NGT women with the previous GDM; Control group: NGT women without the previous GDM
MBG mean of blood glucose, SDBG standard deviation of blood glucose, MODD mean of daily differences, MAGE mean amplitude of glycemic excursions, AUC pp incremental areas above preprandial glucose values
