Both gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) would influence the gestation significantly. However, the causation between these two symptoms remains speculative. 16,404 pregnant women were identified in Harbin, China, in this study. We investigated and evaluated the causal effect of GDM on PIH based on the Bayes conditional probability. The statistical results indicated that PIH might cause GDM, but not vice versa. Also, this case study demonstrated that the decrease temperature might also cause hypertension during pregnancy, and the prevalence rate of GDM increased with age. However, the prevalence of diabetes did not show a remarkable difference in varied areas and ages. This study could provide some essential information that will help to investigate the mechanism for GDM and PIH.
妊娠期糖尿病（GDM）和妊娠高血压（PIH）都会显著影响妊娠。然而，这两种症状之间的因果关系仍在推测之中。本研究在中国哈尔滨确定了 16404 名孕妇。我们基于贝叶斯条件概率调查和评估了 GDM 对 PIH 的因果效应。统计结果表明，PIH 可能导致 GDM，但反之则不然。此外，这项案例研究表明，怀孕期间体温下降也可能导致高血压，而且 GDM 的患病率随年龄增长而增加。然而，不同地区和年龄的糖尿病患病率没有显著差异。本研究可以提供一些重要信息，有助于研究 GDM 和 PIH 的发病机制。
