    The study investigates the relationship between NHR and UHR ratios in early pregnancy and the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).

  • 2

    Patients in the GDM group showed significantly elevated NHR and UHR levels compared to the non-GDM group, indicating a strong correlation with GDM development.

  • 3

    Spearman’s rank correlation analysis confirmed that serum NHR and UHR levels at 10-13 weeks of gestation are positively correlated with GDM.

  • 4

    Multivariate logistic regression identified NHR and UHR as independent risk factors for GDM, with both factors demonstrating predictive value.

  • 5

    The findings suggest that elevated NHR and UHR levels in early pregnancy could serve as potential biomarkers for assessing GDM risk.
