Filter by: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.
There are a few ongoing large randomized controlled trials (RCT's) on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in women with gestational diabetes (GDM) powered for pregnancy outcomes. However, none of these studies included women diagnosed with early GDM. The CORDELIA trial is a Belgian open-label multi-centric RCT with 17 centers in women with GDM (including both early and late GDM). Women will be randomized 1/1 to either treatment with CGM (intervention group, Freestyle Libre 3) or continue with self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) with glucometer in line with normal routine (control arm). The study ends at the postpartum oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT 6-24 weeks postpartum) to screen for glucose intolerance.
To assess the efficacy of utilizing a social media platform for dietary and lifestyle management in improving acceptance and blood glucose control in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), compared to the control group under usual care. Specifically, i. To measure the participants' acceptability and satisfaction levels of receiving intervention through the social media platform. ii. To measure the feasibility of using the social media platform to provide GDM support through participants' engagement levels and feedback questionnaire. iii. To measure the efficacy of using the social media platform to manage emotional responses in women with GDM. iv. To measure the efficacy of using the social media platform to optimize glycemic control in women with GDM.
The PKUBC-WF is a prospective cohort study carried out in Weifang city of Shandong, China. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the short-term and long-term effects of pre-pregnant and prenatal exposure on maternal and child health. Data are collected regarding environmental, nutritional and lifestyle exposures as well as short-term and long-term health outcomes of mothers and their children from birth to before 18 years old. Biological samples including peripheral blood, urine, placenta, umbilical cord, cord blood, and faeces are also collected.
Women who experience gestational diabetes are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus in the postpartum period-especially in low- and middle-income countries like India where the burden of diabetes is high and disproportionately affects women- but few receive the World Health Organization-recommended postpartum diabetes screening test. The investigators propose a cluster randomized clinical trial to determine whether community health worker-administered, home-based testing increases uptake of postpartum diabetes screening in the urban slums of Pune, India. The proposed study will provide an acceptable and scalable model that can be used to improve postpartum diabetes screening in other low-income settings, thereby improving early detection of diabetes in women and preventing morbidity and mortality in this high-risk population.
The goal of this single-centre longitudinal observational study is to create reference values for diastolic function parameters in neonates born at 35 weeks' gestation or above, and to assess the influence of pre-defined antenatal, intrapartum, maternal, and neonatal factors on cardiac function. The main question it aims to answer are: - What are the normal reference ranges for parameters of diastolic cardiac function in neonates? - How are these influenced by maternal, intrapartum and neonatal factors? - Do the diastolic changes noted during the first two days of life persist into infancy? Participants will have four echocardiographic assessments in total: - Two during the first 48 hours of life (prior to discharge home) - Two during infancy (as an outpatient)
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the rate of large-for-gestational-age neonates between universal screening with glycated hemoglobin (A1C) and early risk-based screening with a glucose tolerance test (GTT) among pregnancies that present to prenatal care at <16 weeks 6 days.
