description Abstract Objective To study the combined effect of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and maximum level of maternal serum total bile acid (TBA) on the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). Methods This was an observational study with 724 women with ICP. Perinatal outcomes were compared by the presence of GDM. Logistic regression was used to assess the independent and multiplicative interactions of GDM and maximum maternal serum TBA on adverse pregnancy outcomes. Additive interactions were calculated using an Excel sheet developed by Andersson to calculate relative excess risks. Results The incidence of GDM in patients with ICP was 21.55%. Maternal age, pre-pregnancy weight, parity, and gravidity were positively correlated with GDM. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and fetal distress rates were higher in the GDM vs. non-GDM group. There were no significant differences in biochemical outcomes (i.e., Triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and total bile acid (TBA)) between the two groups. In terms of adverse pregnancy outcomes, GDM was only associated with maximum TBA concentration for cesarean section. No additive or pairwise interactions were detected between GDM and maximum TBA concentration and HDP, PPH, preterm delivery, LGA, SGA, and cesarean section. Conclusion GDM independently contributes to adverse pregnancy outcomes among women with ICP. However, the combined effects of GDM and maximum TBA concentration on adverse pregnancy outcomes do not appear to be multiplicative or additive.
