BACKGROUND: Gestational diabetes is associated with increased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, but there are limited data on fetal growth and neonatal outcomes when both conditions are present. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the risk of abnormal fetal growth and neonatal morbidity in pregnancies with co-occurrence of gestational diabetes and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. STUDY DESIGN: In a retrospective study of 47,093 singleton pregnancies, we compared the incidence of appropriate for gestational age birthweight in pregnancies affected by gestational diabetes alone, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy alone, or both gestational diabetes and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy with that in pregnancies affected by neither disorder using generalized estimating equations (covariates: maternal age, nulliparity, body mass index, insurance type, race, marital status, and prenatal care site). Secondary outcomes were large for gestational age birthweight, small for gestational age birthweight, and a neonatal morbidity composite outcome (stillbirth, hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, respiratory distress, encephalopathy, preterm delivery, neonatal death, and neonatal intensive care unit admission). RESULTS: The median (interquartile range) birthweight percentile in pregnancies with both gestational diabetes and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (50 [24.0-78.0]; N=179) was similar to that of unaffected pregnancies (50 [27.0-73.0]; N=35,833). However, the absolute rate of appropriate for gestational age birthweight was lower for gestational diabetes/hypertensive disorders of pregnancy co-occurrence (78.2% vs 84.9% for unaffected pregnancies). Adjusted analyses showed decreased odds of appropriate for gestational age birthweight in pregnancies with both gestational diabetes and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy compared with unaffected pregnancies (adjusted odds ratio, 0.72 [95% confidence interval, 0.52-1.00]; P=.049), and in pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes alone (adjusted odds ratio, 0.78 [0.68-0.89]; P<.001) or hypertensive disorders of pregnancy alone (adjusted odds ratio, 0.73 [0.66-0.81]; P<.001). The absolute risk of large for gestational age birthweight was greater in pregnancies with both gestational diabetes and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (14.5%) than in unaffected pregnancies (8.2%), without apparent difference in the risk of small for gestational age birthweight (7.3% vs 6.9%). However, in adjusted models comparing pregnancies with gestational diabetes/hypertensive disorders of pregnancy co-occurrence with unaffected pregnancies, neither an association with large for gestational age birthweight (adjusted odds ratio, 1.33 [0.88-2.00]; P=.171) nor small for gestational age birthweight (adjusted odds ratio, 1.32 [0.80-2.19]; P=.293) reached statistical significance. Gestational diabetes/hypertensive disorders of pregnancy co-occurrence carried an increased risk of neonatal morbidity that was greater than that observed with either condition alone (gestational diabetes/hypertensive disorders of pregnancy: adjusted odds ratio, 3.13 [2.35-4.17]; P<.001; gestational diabetes alone: adjusted odds ratio, 2.01 [1.78-2.27]; P<.001; hypertensive disorders of pregnancy alone: adjusted odds ratio, 1.38 [1.26-1.50]; P<.001). CONCLUSION: Although pregnancies with both gestational diabetes and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy have a similar median birthweight percentile to those affected by neither condition, pregnancies concurrently affected by both conditions have a higher risk of abnormal fetal growth and neonatal morbidity.
