The sentences
Offspring of mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus showed a higher prevalence of abnormal glucose tolerance (11.86% vs 7.97%), impaired fasting glucose (1.89% vs 0.49%) and impaired glucose tolerance (10.34% vs 7.13%) than offspring of mothers with normal glucose tolerance, although these associations did not reach statistical significance in fully adjusted models, underscoring the benefit of considering maternal glucose as a continuous trait.
