Postnatal Lifestyle Intervention for Overweight Women With Previous Gestational Diabetes: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with a sevenfold increased lifetime risk of type 2 diabetes. Excessive gestational weight gain and postpartum weight retention are established predictors of long-term obesity. Objective: To determine the impact of a postnatal lifestyle intervention program for overweight women with previous gestational diabetes mellitus (PAIGE). Design: Postnatal overweight women with previous GDM participated in a multicenter randomized controlled trial between June 2013 and December 2014. The intervention comprised a 1-hour educational program, a free 3-month referral to a commercial weight management organization (Slimming World), a pedometer, and structured telephone and text support, in addition to usual care. The control group received usual care only. The primary outcome was weight loss at 6 months. Results: Sixty women were randomized (29 intervention; 31 control) in two centers based on their week of attendance. The intervention group demonstrated significant weight loss at 6 months after randomization compared with the control group: mean ±SD, 3.9 ± 7.0 kg vs 0.7 ±3.8 kg (P = 0.02). Blood glucose levels did not significantly differ. With respect to well-being measures, a bodily pain was significantly reduced in the intervention group (P = 0.007). Conclusions: PAIGE resulted in significantly greater weight loss at 6 months compared with usual care. Such weight loss could prove beneficial in terms of better long-term health and subsequent prevention of type 2 diabetes in overweight women with previous GDM. Future interventions must consider recruitment strategies, timing of the intervention, and inclusion of partners and/or other family members.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
