The secondary outcomes included glycemic indices, preterm birth, pregnancy\u2010induced hypertension, birth weight, neonatal hypoglycemia, gestational age at birth, cesarean delivery, shoulder dystocia, macrosomia, and neonatal intensive care unit admission. The pooled results were presented as standardized mean differences for continuous outcomes and relative risks (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for dichotomous outcomes, using a random effects model.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 19 studies involving 17\u2009932 participants were included in the analysis. ISL supplementation was linked to a lower risk of GDM (RR: 0.42; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.37\u20130.49), reduced need for insulin therapy (RR: 0.33; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.19\u20130.58), decreased incidence of pregnancy\u2010induced hypertension (RR: 0.34; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.27\u20130.44), lower rates of preterm birth (RR: 0.38; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.31\u20130.47), and a reduced rate of neonatal hypoglycemia. Additionally, ISL significantly lowered oral glucose tolerance test results, fasting blood sugar levels, and birth weight, while increasing fasting serum insulin levels and gestational age at birth. Subgroup analyses indicated that the effects varied based on the type of intervention and dosage of ISL used.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
