  1. BMI body mass index, GDM gestational diabetes mellitus, WHR waist-to-hip ratio, t statistic for two-sided independent-samples t-test, Z statistic for Mann–Whitney test for data with skewed distribution.
  2. *For continuous variables, normally distributed data (WHR) were described as mean ± standard deviation (SD); data from skewed distribution were described by the median (Q1, Q3); Categorical variable was described as N (%), p value was calculated using Chi-square test.
