Table 6.
Cumulative incidence of type 2 diabetes by length of follow-up
Study follow-up length (years) | No of contributing studies | GDM* % (95% CI) | Controls (% (95% CI†) |
---|---|---|---|
1-5 | 3 | 17.34 (12.02-23.82) | 1.29 (0.59-2.43) |
>10 | 2 | 33.00 (31.28-34.75) | 3.61 (3.43-3.80) |
All studies | 6# | 32.15 (30.50-33.83) | 3.71 (3.53-3.90) |
*GDM=Gestational diabetes mellitus; †CI=Confidence interval. #One study did not report follow-up duration; hence, it was only considered in all studies
