NCT ID: NCT06131749 Active, not recruiting - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Genital Tract Infections, the Vaginal Microbiome and Gestational Age at Birth Among Pregnant Women in South Africa

Start date: March 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This cohort study plans to investigate associations between the presence of multiple lower genital tract microorganisms in pregnancy and gestational age at birth. The study enrols pregnant women at one public health care facility in East London, South Africa. At enrolment and 30-34 weeks of pregnancy, participants provide swabs for testing for sexually transmitted infections, vaginal yeasts and genital mycoplasmas; for microscopy and Nugent scoring; and for 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid gene sequencing and quantification. The primary outcome is gestational age at birth. Statistical analyses include: regression modelling to explore associations between specific microorganisms (including microbiota) and gestational age at birth; construction of an index of vaginal inflammation, using data about microorganism load and inflammatory potential; classification and regression tree analysis to examine which combinations of microorganisms contribute to earlier gestational age at birth.

NCT ID: NCT01555047 Active, not recruiting - Mycoplasma Clinical Trials

Correlation Among Sperm DNA Fragmentation, Genitourinary Infection by Mycoplasma in Male and the Pregnancy Outcomes After IUI in Their Partner

Start date: September 2011
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Genital ureaplasmas (Ureaplasma urealyticum and Ureaplasma parvum) and genital mycoplasmas (Mycoplasma hominis and Mycoplasma genitalium) are natural inhabitants of the male urethra contaminating the semen during ejaculation. However, these microorganisms, especially Ureaplasma urealyticum (Uu) and Mycoplasma hominis (Mh), are potentially pathogenic species playing an etiologic role in both genital infections and male infertility. Despite there are many consentaneous opinions about its relationship with infertility, its correlation with sperm regular parameters is still controversially. Sperm DNA damage can negatively influence fertilization rate, embryo cleavage rate, implantation rate, pregnancy and live birth rate, and is a novel indicator for intrauterine insemination (IUI) pregnancy rate and IVF or ICSI pregnancy loss rate. Until now, there were fewer clinical researches about the relationship among Uu and/or Mh infection, sperm DNA damage, and the IUI pregnancy rate. Thus, the investigators conduct this prospective study to investigate the relationship among them.
