GPT's summary
This study reveals that the prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Israel increased by 12% from 2000 to 2010, with significant risk factors including a history of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The presence of PCOS was identified as a notable risk factor for GDM, alongside older maternal age and low socioeconomic status. Changes in screening practices also contributed to the rising GDM rates, highlighting the importance of considering PCOS history in GDM risk assessment
