title: Gestational diabetes: too many uncertainties to recommend routine screening.
abstract: Three trials comparing the effect of diabetes screening during pregnancy failed to show whether the benefits outweigh the risks, The British, U.S. and French authorities have not recommended widespread screening, The information available should be provided to pregnant women, and screening tests should be considered on a case-by-case basis, mainly for women with risk factors.
