Moderate intensity sports and exercise is associated with glycaemic control in women with gestational diabetes.
The aim of the study was to assess the association of regular, unsupervised sports and exercise during pregnancy, by intensity level, with glycaemic control in women with gestational diabetes (GDM). The study concluded that higher volumes of moderate intensity sports and exercise, reported shortly after GDM diagnosis, were significantly associated with increased odds of achieving glycaemic control.
