    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-08-04) Mercado Castillo, Rosa María Isidora; Alfaro Fernández, Paul Rubén
    Objective: To conduct a review of publications on the risk factors influencing macrosomia. Materials and Methods: A systematic review of 20 primary original studies was conducted using databases such as Pubmed, Scielo, and Cochrane. Each study was examined to determine its strength and quality of evidence according to the Grade scale. Results: The review of 20 scientific articles on risk factors for macrosomia in pregnant women was performed using specialized search engines such as Pubmed, Scielo, and Cochrane. The studies were categorized into systematic review design, cohort studies (10%, 2 articles), case-control studies (85%, 17 articles), and systematic review (5%, 1 article). Conclusions: Analyzing the evidence from the publications, 70% (14/20) were related to gestational weight as a fetal risk factor for macrosomia. Additionally, gestational diabetes (GD) was present in 30% (6/20) of the systematic reviews analyzed, identifying it as another significant risk factor for fetal macrosomia.
