Abstract
Introduction: Pregnant women with GDM gestational diabetes mellitus have a higher risk of having adverse maternal-infant outcomes. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of GDM in Colombia according to the criteria of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups [IADPSG]. Materials and methods: A systematic review was carried out by searching the PubMed / Medline and Cochrane databases in English and Spanish. The quality assessment was done using the GRADE methodology. Results: A total of 7 articles with 37,795 Colombian participants were included in the systematic review. The prevalence of GDM in Colombia was 8.7%. Conclusion: As far as we know, this systematic review is the first study to estimate the prevalence of GDM in women in Colombia according to criteria of the IADPSG. The results suggest a GDM prevalence in Colombia in the world average. Be careful with these results because there could be under-records.
