Abstract: The objective is to determine the risk factors associated with gestational diabetes mellitus in northern Mexico using an observational, analytical design of cases and controls in a Family Medicine Unit No. 33 of Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico in pregnant women between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation. The interventions are to 363 cases and 587 controls who underwent the one-step test with oral overload of 75 grams of glucose with baseline determination at one hour and two hours to determine the presence or not of gestational diabetes mellitus. From the electronic file, sociodemographic, anthropometric, gynecoobstetric, pathological and nonpathological antecedents were collected. The measurement was performed with Stata 17 with a univariate exploratory analysis using the sample mean and standard deviation to determine the centrality and dispersion. Subsequently, a bivariate analysis was carried out to determine the association and correlation of the variables of interest with the presence or absence of gestational diabetes. Finally, a comprehensive logistic model with the study factors was used to determine their effect and statistical significance. The results are that women with gestational diabetes mellitus have greater age, weight, and obstetric risk, and the main risk factors associated with gestational diabetes were age and obesity.
