Filter by:To assess the occurrence of 11 SNP's in ABCB11 and ABCB4 genes in Greek women with ICP compared with healthy pregnant women. Moreover, these genetic polymorphisms will be examined in their first-degree relatives.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an intervention combining motivational interviewing and follow-up with a mobile phone application will help overweight women and their partners adopt healthy lifestyle habits in the preconception period. This study will also evaluate the impact of the intervention on the weight, waist circumference, and body fat of women and their partners. Women and their partners will be followed through pregnancy to explore the effects of the intervention on the adequacy of gestational weight gain, rates of pregnancy complications, delivery mode, and infant birth weight.
This study will utilize continuous glucose monitoring in women with A2 gestational diabetes. Women will be randomized to continuous glucose monitoring or routine care with fingersticks to check their blood glucose four times daily. It is hypothesized that women in the continuous glucose monitoring arm will have a lower incidence of the composite primary outcome, which includes the following variables: perinatal death, shoulder dystocia, birth weight greater than 4,000 grams, NICU admission for treatment of hypoglycemia (blood glucose level <40mg/dL) and birth trauma, including fracture or nerve palsy.
The researchers would like to know how long pregnant women spend in different positions during the night - and how often women change positions - across pregnancy. The researchers also want to see if the sleep monitor is able to improve sleep behaviors
Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-related hypertensive disorder drive by an anti-angiogenic environment. Women with PE have 2-4 time higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD), although the specific mechanism relating these two conditions remains elusive. In non-pregnant patients with coronary disease, angiogenic profile proved to be an independent predictor of poor prognosis and is associated with a higher mortality rate. The investigators hypothesized that in PE, the antiangiogenic environment determines the degree of cardiac dysfunction and remodeling and the posterior cardiovascular risk.
Objectives: Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) generates high risk for one of the twins, may lead to preterm delivery and is also associated with neurodevelopmental deficits. The aim of this study was to explore a controlled amnioreduction (AR) procedure in which the amniotic pressure is simultaneously measured with the removed volume of amniotic pressure. Methods: Eleven patients with severe TTTS at stages II and III of Quintero classification were enrolled to the study. The amniotic pressure was measured along with the removed volume of the amniotic pressure between 17-34 weeks of gestation. The umbilical artery S/D ratio for each twin was measured at the beginning and after every 500cc of removed amniotic fluid. Long-term neurodevelopmental outcome of infants with TTTS was evaluated from a questionnaire for assessing the overall health of the surviving twins.
The aim of this study is to encourage smoking cessation in women with substance use disorders by providing knowledge of expired carbon monoxide. We hypothesize that women who are provided knowledge of their expired carbon monoxide and the associated percent fetal carboxyhemoglobin will have a greater success at quitting smoking during pregnancy than women who are not provided this information. A secondary aim of the study is to correlate expired carbon monoxide throughout pregnancy with infant birth weight.
This study aims to assess the prevalence of sleep disorder breathing in pregnant women with a singleton gestation who develop hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) compared to women without HDP, when matched for gestational age and body mass index.
The aim of this study is the early (presymptomatic) detection of pregnancy complications, which could contribute to a preventive treatment.
To estimate the clinical effectiveness of wireless physiologic monitoring of women in the first 24 hours after cesarean delivery at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital
