Nutritional and inflammatory indices in gestational and pregestational diabetes: emphasis on the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo comparatively evaluate the prognostic value of nutritional and inflammatory indices in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and pregestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM), and to determine their association with adverse perinatal outcomes.
methodsThis retrospective study included 280 pregnant women followed at a tertiary care center between January 2020 and December 2024. Participants were categorized into three groups: GDM (n = 90), PGDM (n = 80), and healthy controls (n = 110). Nutritional status was assessed using the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) and Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) scores. Inflammatory indices including NLR, SII, SIRI, PIV, and others were calculated. Perinatal outcomes such as preterm birth, NICU admission, and Composite Adverse Perinatal Outcomes (CAPO) were recorded. ROC analysis was used to determine the predictive power of the biomarkers.
resultsThe PGDM group demonstrated significantly higher CONUT scores and lower PNI scores compared to the other groups (p < 0.001). Among inflammatory markers, NLR, SII, SIRI, and PIV were significantly elevated in PGDM cases. ROC analyses revealed that the CONUT score had strong discriminative ability in differentiating diabetic (GDM and PGDM) from non-diabetic pregnancies (AUC = 0.787; specificity = 89.1%), while the PNI score showed limited discriminative capacity (AUC = 0.291). Inflammatory indices also demonstrated moderate predictive value, particularly among PGDM cases. Higher CONUT and inflammatory scores were associated with increased rates of preterm birth, NICU admission, and CAPO (p < 0.001).
conclusionNutritional and inflammatory disturbances are more prominent in PGDM than in GDM. The CONUT score and selected inflammatory indices may serve as valuable tools for early risk stratification in diabetic pregnancies. Integration of these parameters into clinical decision-making may improve perinatal outcomes, particularly in high-risk groups such as PGDM.
