Filter by:The overall goal of this proposal is to create and test an implementation protocol for in-hospital immediate postpartum diabetes screening and subsequent treatment with metformin for postpartum patients with pregnancies affected by GDM.
The goal of this clinical trial is to better understand how different strategies, timing, and enhancements to medically tailored food delivery will address structural inequities in the food environment, empower communities to sustain behavior change, and ultimately improve postpartum weight control to prevent type 2 diabetes-a potent contributor to disparate mortality among Black women. The main aims of the study are: - To conduct a pilot randomized control trial to test the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of a multi-component Medically Tailored Food (MTF) intervention, Moveable Feast ENHANCED (a hybrid MTF intervention with a patient-activated change from prepared meals to fresh food delivery, customized for postpartum people, culturally customized for engagement and adherence, and food provision for dependents) versus MFeast Usual Care (prepared medically tailored foods only) - To test sustainability and scalability. Participants will: - Respond to online surveys (supported by study team members via scheduled phone calls) via REDCap links shared before each study visit at baseline, 3, 6 months post-delivery after the baseline survey. - Submit anthropometric data (i.e, weight) and information about laboratory results ( e.g. HgbA1C)
The goal of this study is assess the impact of a higher intensity dietary and activity counseling program to improve blood sugar control and reduce the chance of developing gestational diabetes (GDM) as compared to the current standard diet and activity counseling.
The aim of our study is to compare neonatal and maternal outcomes using different thresholds for the initiation and titration of pharmacotherapy for gestational diabetes (GDM). Our goal is to compare a Strict and permissive threshold. The Strict study arm target range will be 65-120 mg/dL, with time in range goal of 70%. The permissive study arm target range will be 65-140 mg/dL, with target time in range goal of 70%.
The aim of our study is to compare neonatal and maternal outcomes using different thresholds for the initiation and titration of pharmacotherapy for gestational diabetes (GDM). Our goal is to compare a strict and permissive threshold. The strict threshold is defined as two abnormal values or more over a one-week period (two fasting values elevated, two of the same post prandial values elevated, or 1 fasting and 1 post prandial value elevated), whereas the permissive threshold is defined as 50% of values elevated over 1 week (50% of overall fasting values, 50% of postprandial values, or 50% of overall values).
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a condition that can affect pregnant women during pregnancy and may cause complications for the mother and the baby. Therefore, early and accurate detection is necessary to provide the woman and the baby with better health outcomes. Currently, the most commonly used criteria to detect GDM is the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criterion. However, there is a suggestion that it results in over-diagnosis of GDM, and newer methods of diagnosis have been proposed. One such proposal is to have more than a binary outcome of assessment of dysglycemia in pregnancy. The investigator group created this criterion known as the National Priorities Research Program (NPRP) criterion. This clinical trial compares the IADPSG to the NPRP criteria in pregnant women in Qatar to determine if this newer method mitigates overdiagnosis and more accurately identifies women at risk of complications.
This is Observational study, aiming to investigate the potentiality of cffDNA and cfRNA by a non-invasive test, in combination with clinical characteristics, to establish models for early screening and predicting high-risk pregnancy of PE, SPB, and GDM in Vietnam.
Our study named Integrated Continuous glucose monitoring glycemic cHAracterization during Pregnancy in comparison with oral glucose tolerance test (I-CHAP) aims to establish much needed preliminary evidence in our Asian population to show the capabilities of CGM use and its wealth of data for GDM diagnosis. This study aims to test the following aims and hypotheses in a single-armed intervention pilot trial study of pregnant women undergoing the oral glucose tolerance test: Aim 1. To characterize CGM glucose values with the 3-point blood glucose measured during the OGTT procedure. The investigators hypothesize that the CGM glucose values at single time points while fasted, and after the 75-g glucose load will be positively correlated with 3-timepoint blood glucose values captured during the OGTT. Aim 2. To correlate the CGM glucose excursions and CGM-derived metrics (glycaemic variability and glycaemic control) with maternal-fetal outcomes and treatment outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that higher AUC, glycemic variability and poorer glycaemic control will better distinguish maternal-fetal outcomes and treatment outcomes, compared to the OGTT. Aim 3. To describe the acceptability of using the Dexcom G6 CGM as a diagnostic tool instead of the OGTT. The investigators hypothesize that a higher proportion of participants will report CGM to be more acceptable than the OGTT for GDM diagnosis.
The EMERGE Mothers and Kids study is a follow-up to the EMERGE trial of women with GDM (N=535) that aimed to determine the effect of the addition of metformin compared to placebo on insulin initiation rates, maternal weight gain and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The primary objectives of the EMERGE Mothers and Kids follow up study are: 1. to determine whether treatment with metformin leads to a reduction in maternal disorders of glucose, metabolic syndrome, obesity, hypertension and lipids at up to 6 years post the index pregnancy; 2. to examine the impact of metformin on maternal anxiety, depression, quality of life and breast feeding duration; 3. to examine whether exposure to metformin leads to a reduction in obesity in the offspring at follow up; 4. to determine whether treatment with metformin during pregnancy, in women with GDM, leads to a reduction in adiposity in the offspring at follow up as measured by anthropometric measurements and sum of skinfolds.
The goal of this study is to learn whether access to healthy and fresh food, health coaching, and nutrition support intervention can reduce adverse birth outcomes in pregnant women. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does access to healthy and fresh food, health coaching and nutrition support reduce the risk of gestational diabetes or preeclampsia and ultimately improve health outcomes for mothers and their newborns? - Are participants able to successfully utilize the health program? Are participants satisfied and self-equipped to apply the teachings of the program within their lives following their participation in the study? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Participants in the standard of care will be asked to: - Complete surveys - Biometric screenings Participants in the intervention group will be asked to: - Complete surveys - Biometric screenings - Participate in weekly personal health coaching - Receive and consume provided weekly meals. Researchers will compare the standard of care to those who receive the intervention to see the impact of the intervention on clinical outcomes including: gestational weight gain, blood pressure, diagnosis of gestational diabetes, diagnosis of gestational hypertension or preeclampsia, and gestational age at birth.
