Obstetrics And Gynecology Clinics Of North America	A literature search was conducted in MEDLINE using the following search criteria: ‘‘gestational diabetes’’ as a MeSH term or text word, combined with ‘‘epidemiology’’ as a subheading or MeSH term, ‘‘prevalence’’ as a MeSH term, or ‘‘trend’’ or ‘‘screening’’ as a text word. In addition, the search was limited to English-language articles published in the last 10 years (July 1st, 1996 through October 1st, 2006). These search criteria yielded 1025 articles. The lead author (KJH) reviewed either the abstract or title of these articles to determine if they were suitable to assess either the current prevalence of GDM or trends in the prevalence of GDM. The review was limited to population-based studies that included at least 500 pregnant women, or hospital-based studies that included at least 1000 pregnant women with at least 70% of the population being screened for GDM. In addition, articles that assessed GDM trends were required to span at least 3 years. When multiple articles were published on a single population, the article containing the most recent information was retained. In addition to conducting the literature search, reference lists of review articles obtained from the MEDLINE search were reviewed for additional pertinent studies.
