N: The number of patients for each variables; n/N: The number of GDM events during the subsequent pregnancy/N; cOR, clude odds ratio; aOR, adjusted odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; BMI, body mass index; GDM, gestational diabetes mellitus.

Parameteres of the index pregnancy. §ORs were not calculated because there were no non-GDM during the subsequent pregnancy in subgroup1. *Statistically significant.
