Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to compare miRNA and FGF21 in pregnancy with and without GDM (Gestational Diabetes) The main question it aims to answer that miRNA and FGF21 are different between two groups. Participants will be retrieved blood sample during first trimester and undergone 100 gm OGTT (oral glucose challenge test) during 24-28 weeks of gestation.
Breastfeeding could effectively be associated with a lower risk of future type 2 diabetes (T2D) in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), but the short-term protective impact of puerperal breastfeeding on maternal metabolic recovery of GDM women remains unascertained. The investigators recruited GDM participants at 6-9 weeks postpartum and retrieved clinical diagnoses of GDM from electronic medical records. Feeding patterns were collected via phone calls. Glucose metabolism parameters and lipid profiling were performed on fasting plasma samples collected from patients 6-9 weeks postpartum (20 breastfeeding cases vs. 15 formula feeding cases).
More children will survive to adulthood today than at any other point in human history, as evidenced by the proportion of live births and absolute numbers. The present generation of young people who have lived to the age of five will reach adulthood around 2030 and will be the generation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These children's health and nutrition as they grow from 5 to 19 years will have permanent ramifications on the development of the coming generation. The Comprehensive National Nutrition Survey was conducted between 2016 and 2018, indicating unacceptably high levels of malnutrition among Indian children and adolescents. It was discovered that one out of every five children aged 5 to 9 was stunted, indicating they were malnourished for their age. Undernourished girls are more likely to become short-statured mothers, giving birth to low-birth-weight and stunted newborns who are more prone to disease and linear growth failure. Evidence suggests that maternal short stature (less than 150 cm) predicts childhood growth failure and increases the risk of having a stunted baby by two years. The common genetic background and environmental influences that affect the mother during her early childhood and adolescence play a substantial role in the relationship between maternal stature and the linear growth of the child. This causes a cycle of undernutrition and poor growth that continues through generations and impacts the offspring's growth. Adolescence is a key period of physical and social development when the physiological, mental, and behavioural underpinnings of long-term health are established. The development of critical bone mass is crucial during this time because it lays the foundation for preserving bone mineral integrity later in life. During adolescence, over 40% of peak bone mass is achieved. Changes in body composition are also seen during early adolescence. These physiological processes are both nutritionally sensitive and predictive of their future health. Adolescent behaviour is also linked to 33 percent of sickness and 60 percent of premature deaths in adulthood. Because adolescence is also a critical period for the development of the ability to make independent decisions, follow them through, and achieve goals- enabling healthy social networks, is critical. This includes Social and Behavioural Change Communications, which can assist early adolescents create lifetime behaviour patterns, such as good nutrition and physical exercise choices. Investing in adolescent health and well-being pays off in three ways: during their adolescence, in their adulthood, and for their future offspring generations. Thus, young adolescence provides a "window of opportunity" for children to improve their nutritional health and outcomes. Therefore, this cohort aims to explore the trajectories of growth (including anthropometric measures, bone mass, and muscle mass and function) among rural young adolescents and its association with intergenerational nutritional status through a longitudinal study. A greater understanding of growth trajectories set in a longitudinal study would aid in the discovery of particular variables that influence the timing of young adolescents' growth and the factors associated with intergenerational nutritional status.
Without intervention, approximately 70% of women diagnosed with GDM will develop type 2 diabetes mellitus in their lifetime. Abnormal results of a 2 hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) performed as early as 2 days postpartum are predictive of impaired glucose tolerance 1 year postpartum. The investigators hypothesize that use of the Malama smartphone application to optimize antenatal glycemic control will result in lower incidence of postpartum glucose intolerance, which may decrease long term risk of progression to diabetes mellitus.
In this study, we aim to compare the blood levels of Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) in gestational diabetes patients with normal pregnant women, to reveal the relationship between these markers, which are known to be effective on metabolic function, and gestational diabetes, and to contribute to future studies and possible treatment options.
There are studies in the literature showing that there is a decrease in the number of pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes and improvements in parameters related to maternal and infant health, with the education to be given to pregnant women at risk of gestational diabetes on preventive lifestyle practices such as healthy nutrition, physical exercise, and coping with stress. The aim of this study; For pregnant women at risk of gestational diabetes; education on preventive health behaviors; It is to determine the level of knowledge about GDM, risk perception and its effect on healthy living behaviors.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether permissive intrapartum glycemic control compared to usual care would lead to similar rate of neonatal hypoglycemia among people with diabetes.
Chronic health conditions affect most older adults. Preventative medicine and risk management strategies, especially when applied earlier in life, are essential to altering the trajectory of a disease and ultimately improving health outcomes. Primary care providers (PCP) often provide most of these services, though younger adults are the least likely to receive primary care. This project leverages a period of high engagement and health activation during an individual's life (pregnancy) to nudge her toward use of primary care after the pregnancy episode. This randomized controlled trial will test the hypothesis that a behavioral science-informed intervention, incorporating defaults and salience, can increase the rates of PCP follow-up within 4 months following a delivery for individual with hypertension, diabetes, obesity. If successful, this intervention could serve as a scalable solution to increase primary care use and preventative health services in a population that currently has low rates of engagement and utilization of these services.
Primary Outcome:- GDM Diagnosis Secondary Outcomes:- Pre-eclampsia diagnosis. Cesarean section delivery due to labor dystocia defined as protracted or arrested progress of labor using labor partogram.
This is a a single-centre, parallel, randomized controlled trial in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Women are randomized to routine monthly prenatal clinic care (standard care group) or a group sending daily glucose readings via an application installed on a smartphone and monthly individual videoconferences replacing in-person visits (telemedicine group). The overall aim is to compare the effectiveness of the combine synchronous and asynchronous telemedicine care with the standard care in women with GDM.
