Review Meta Analysis Comparative StudyOral hypoglycemic agents vs insulin in management of gestational diabetes: a systematic review and metaanalysis.
The objective of this review was to provide pooled estimates of randomized controlled trials comparing the effects of oral hypoglycemic agents with insulin in achieving glycemic control and to study the maternal and perinatal outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus. ⋯ Our study demonstrates that there are no differences in glycemic control or pregnancy outcomes when OHAs were compared with insulin.
