Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between excessive gestational weight gain and the risk of macrosomia. Methods Three databases were systematically reviewed and reference lists of relevant articles from January 2001 to December 2014 were checked. Meta-analysis of published epidemiological studies (cohort and case-control studies) was done. The odds ratio (OR) was used to evaluate the relationship of excessive gestational weight gain and macrosomia delivery. Results Twelve relevant articles were included to analyze, including 4 cohort studies and 8 case-control ones. The values of OR and 95%CI of macrosomia in pregnant women with excessive and non-excessiveweight gain were 1.66 (1.49, 1.83). Conclusion The risk of macrosomia in pregnant women with excessive gestational weight gain is much higher than those with normal gestational weight gain.
