The Role of Early Pregnancy Maternal pGCD59 Levels in Predicting Neonatal Hypoglycemia-Subanalysis of the DALI Study.
Observational study in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
contextNeonatal hypoglycaemia (NH) is the most common metabolic problem in infants born of mothers with gestational diabetes. Plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is an emerging biomarker that has shown potential in identifying women at risk of developing gestational diabetes. The aim of this study was to assess the association between early maternal levels of pGCD59 and NH.
objectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the association between early pregnancy maternal levels of plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) and neonatal hypoglycemia (NH).
methodsThis is an observational study of pregnant women with a prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 29 screened for eligibility to participate in the Vitamin D and Lifestyle Intervention for Gestational Diabetes (DALI) trial. This analysis included 399 pregnancies. Levels of pGCD59 were measured in fasting maternal samples taken at the time of a 75-g, 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test performed in early pregnancy (< 20 weeks). NH, the study outcome, was defined as a heel-prick capillary glucose level of less than 2.6 mmol/L within 48 hours of delivery.
resultsWe identified 30 infants with NH. Maternal levels of pGCD59 in early pregnancy were positively associated with the prevalence of NH (one-way analysis of variance, P < .001). The odds of NH were higher in infants from mothers in tertile 3 of pGCD59 levels compared to those from mothers in tertile 1 (odds ratio [OR]: 2.41; 95% CI, 1.03-5.63). However, this was attenuated when adjusted for maternal BMI (OR: 2.28; 95% CI, 0.96-5.43). The cross-validated area under the curve (AUC) was 0.64 (95% CI, 0.54-0.74), and adjusted for maternal BMI, age, and ethnicity, the AUC was 0.70 (95% CI, 0.56-0.78).
conclusionAlthough pGCD59 levels in early pregnancy in women with BMI greater than or equal to 29 are associated with NH, our results indicate that this biomarker by itself is only a fair predictor of NH.
