Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to learn about how long-acting injectable antipsychotic (LAIA) medications are affected by the changes that take place in the body during pregnancy, and how much an unborn baby is exposed to. The investigators are also interested in the amount of these drugs that enters into breastmilk and taken by babies during breastfeeding. In addition to their regular clinic visits to receive long-acting mental health medicine injection, participants will be invited for up to four study visits between day 2 and 14 after the injection. This will happen only once during pregnancy, and once during the breastfeeding period to collect a few drops of blood on special filter paper card from the finger using safety lancet. A few drops of breastmilk will also be collected. Immediately after delivery, a few drops of blood will be collected from the mother, umbilical cord and the baby heel. The investigators will use these samples to determine the amount of the drug in the body during pregnancy and compare this to the amount during the breastfeeding period. Additionally, every month during the third trimester, and during the first 3 months postpartum, participants will complete a questionnaire (using the Liverpool University Neuroleptic Side Effect Scale) to document how they are feeling. Clinical improvement will be documented by the primary care provider using the Clinical Global Impressions Scale. Findings from this study are expected to help healthcare providers to understand these drugs better so that they can make informed decisions about if and how to use these drugs in women who become pregnant or are breastfeeding.
The purpose of the INTREPiD study is to compare 1st trimester screening for malaria parasites with a high-sensitivity malaria rapid diagnostic test followed by treatment of test-positive women with artemether-lumefantrine (AL) against usual antenatal care on a composite adverse pregnancy outcome including low birth weight, small for gestational age, preterm, fetal loss, or neonatal death.
This is a worldwide, descriptive safety study collecting data on women and their offspring exposed to avalglucosidase alfa during pregnancy and/or lactation, to assess the risks of avalglucsodiase alfa on pregnancy and maternal complications and adverse effects in the developing fetus, neonate, and infant. - Outcomes in exposed infants, including growth and development, will be assessed through at least the first year of life. - Data will be collected for approximately 10 years.
TRIGGER 1 is a previous study that evaluate the immunological risk of pregnancy in women with lung transplants in France, whose pregnancy has ended between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2021. The primary endpoint is the occurrence of humoral rejection with a year after pregnancy. TRIGGER 2 aims to evaluate the risk of humoral rejection if there are common antigens between the child and the lung donor. We will collect HLA typing from children to compare them to the HLA typing of the mother, the lung donor and the antibodies produced if there are. Thus, it will help us to suggest recommendations to limit the immunological risk of pregnancy for lung transplant women. Lung transplantation is the treatment of choice of terminal chronic respiratory failure, such as cystic fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension. Young female patient of childbearing age are concerned. For many years, given the risk of maternal and fetal complications, pregnancies were not recommended. Studies on large cohorts of transplanted patients, particularly kidney transplanted patients, have made it possible to study the risks of maternal, obstetrical and neonatal complications. A few studies have been published in lung transplantation on small numbers of patients. However, these publications reporting on the fate of pregnancies in cohorts of lung transplant patients do not mentioned the immunological risk, with in particular the absence of studies on the risk of humoral rejection, appearance of anti-HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigens) antibodies (Ac) and the possible appearance of anti-HLA Ac directed against the donor (donor specific antibody, DSA). TRIGGER 1 is a previous study, whose main objective is to evaluate the immunological risk of pregnancy in women with lung transplants (mono-, bi-, or cardiopulmonary) in France, whose pregnancy has ended between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2021. The primary endpoint is the occurrence of humoral rejection within 1 year after pregnancy. For this study TRIGGER2, we will collect the HLA typing of the children for pregnancies that resulted in the birth of a child. Thus, we will be able to compare the HLA typing of the children with the HLA typings of the mother and the lung donor, and the antibodies produced by the mother. The primary endpoint is to evaluate the risk of humoral rejection if there are common HLA antigens between the child and the lung donor.
The First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University initiated a multi-center study to evaluate the changes of maternal fetal heart structure and function in pregnancies with cardiovascular disease by echocardiography, to explore the impact of cardiovascular disease on maternal fetal heart, so as to provide an important reference for obstetric pregnancy risk stratification and management.
Background: The microbiome is the bacteria and other microorganisms that live inside and on the body. The microbiome is important for our health. Researchers study how the microbiome help people stay healthy. They study how the microbiome affects the body when people get sick. To do this research, they need samples of the microbiome living on the bodies of many people. The purpose of this natural history study is to collect microbiome samples in a repository. These samples will be used for future research. Objective: To collect microbiome samples from the body that can be used for future research. Eligibility: People of any age. Only those older than 3 years will be seen at the NIH clinic. Design: Participants will fill out a questionnaire. Topics will include their medical history and foods they eat. Participants will be asked to give 1 or more of the following: Stool, urine, saliva, vaginal fluid, and breastmilk. These samples can be collected at home and sent to the researchers. Cells from participants cheek, nose, mouth, skin, rectum, and/or vagina. The cells may be collected by rubbing the area with a sterile cotton swab. These procedures can also be done at home. Blood. Blood may be drawn using a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. For young children, blood may be collected by a prick on the heel or finger. Intestinal tissue samples. These may be collected from participants who are having an endoscopy or colonoscopy for other reasons. Skin tissue samples. These may be collected from participants who are having biopsies for other reasons.
This is a randomized, parallel, controlled, non-inferiority trial to assess the impact of a tight versus a more liberalized intrapartum glycemic control in gestational diabetic mothers on neonatal glycemia. National guidelines for the management of intrapartum glucose in women with GDM are lacking. This is likely due to the scarcity of high-quality data on the topic.
This study will provide daily urine samples from volunteers who are trying to conceive in order to maintain the SPD biobank. Study volunteers, seeking to conceive will be provided with a CE marked Clearblue Ovulation product to help them pinpoint their most fertile time and aid conception. All volunteers will provide daily early morning urine samples throughout the study period and keep a study diary of menses and pregnancy test results for up to 3 menstrual cycles. Urine samples will be received in the clinical laboratory and aliquoted and stored at -80˚C until required.
The Kesimpta Pregnancy Registry is an observational, exposure cohort designed study to examine pregnancy and infant outcomes in women and infants who are exposed to Kesimpta (ofatumumab) during pregnancy to treat MS.
The aim of this study is to reduce sick leave and improve wellbeing. This is measured as physical and mental health, general work ability, work-life balance, manager support and completed work adjustments among pregnant health care professionals. It is hypothesised that pregnant employees participating in preventive sessions with their manager and a midwife in addition to the hospital standard pregnancy policy management will have less sick leave and report better wellbeing compared to the reference group.
