This study investigated the predictive value of serum Sortilin, HMGB1, and galanin-like peptide (GALP) for GDM development in PCOS pregnancies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This prospective cohort study enrolled 139 PCOS patients. Serum Sortilin, HMGB1 and GALP levels were measured by ELISA at 8-12 weeks. GDM was diagnosed at 24-28 weeks using 75g OGTT (IADPSG criteria). Predictive performance was assessed using multivariable logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, with adjustment for maternal age, BMI, and lipid profiles.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The PCOS-GDM group (n=60) showed significantly higher levels of all biomarkers versus controls (n=79) (all p&amp;lt;0.001). GALP (aOR=1.55, 95%CI:1.05-1.92) and HMGB1 (aOR=1.65, 95%CI:1.50-1.79) independently predicted GDM after adjustment.
