Light gray indicates lack of direct and indirect comparisons. Dark gray separates direct from indirect comparisons. Gestational diabetes mellitus and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were measured as risk ratio (95% CI). Maternal weight gain was measured as mean difference (95% CI). Upper diagonal: Standard meta-analysis. Lower diagonal: Network meta-analysis estimates. * Statistical significance.
