We evaluated the potential role of maternal serum levels of neutrophils in the first trimester of pregnancy in the prediction of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). This prospective cohort study enrolled singleton pregnant women before gestational weeks 16 and evaluated them until delivery. Among the 1467 pregnant women who performed prenatal care before 14 weeks of gestation in the cohort, a total of 731 were eligible for the final analysis. The associations between neutrophil counts, white blood cell count, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, and GDM (assessed by a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test between 24 and 28 weeks) were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression. Neutrophil count outperformed the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and white blood cell count in predicting GDM occurrence. We applied a smoothing function and found that neutrophil count was associated with both fasting blood glucose (FBG) ( p =.0149) and 1-h postprandial blood glucose (PBG) ( p =.0187) after adjustment pre-pregnancy body mass index, family history of diabetes, and age. Logistic regression analysis found that the highest neutrophil count level (6.28–14.73 × 10 9 /L) had a 1.85-fold (95% CI 1.10, 3.09) increased risk of GDM compared with that of the lowest tertile (1.47–4.82 × 10 9 /L). The results indicated an association between higher neutrophil levels and GDM occurrence.
