Presence of preeclampsia, higher positive ultrasound estimated fetal weight deviation at 27 gestational weeks and higher gestational weight gain were independent potentially modifiable risk factors for preterm delivery in this cohort of women with pre-existing diabetes. Indicated preterm delivery was common with suspected fetal asphyxia or preeclampsia as the most prevalent causes. Prospective studies evaluating whether modifying these predictors will reduce the prevalence of preterm delivery are warranted.
