Pregnancy outcome of Japanese patients with glucokinase–maturity‐onset diabetes of the young

Aims/Introduction Glucokinase–maturity‐onset diabetes of the young (GCK‐MODY; also known as MODY2) is a benign hyperglycemic condition, which generally does not require medical interventions. The only known exception is increased birthweight and related perinatal complications in unaffected offspring of affected women. As previous data were obtained mostly from white Europeans, the present study analyzed the pregnancy outcomes of Japanese women with GCK‐MODY to better formulate the management plan for this population.
