Filter by:The results of contemporary studies suggest an association between inflammatory periodontal disease and pregnancy and delivery complications. The aim of this study was to assess the association between periodontal disease, clinical periodontal parameters and pregnancy or delivery complications in type 1 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetic pregnant women.
This study will look at the benefit of decreasing food insecurity and improving glucose control among women who either report gestational diabetes (GDM) at 20-28-weeks or have type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with a confirmed pregnancy. Participants will receive a grocery prescription with delivery through Instacart at the start of the study or after 12 weeks or frozen medically tailored meals delivered from Door Dash. Researchers will compare the grocery prescription program, MTM (medically tailored meals), relative to standard of care to see if the impact on these food as medicine programs can improve glucose control over 12-weeks as compared to standard of care.
Perioperative aspiration is particularly concerning in pregnant women due to anatomical changes. To mitigate this risk, pre-anesthetic fasting is recommended, with varying guidelines. Gastric ultrasound can non-invasively assess stomach contents, and mathematical models help estimate stomach volumes using the gastric antral cross-sectional area (CSA). This study aims to compare CSA and estimated gastric volumes through ultrasound in fasting diabetic and non-diabetic pregnant women scheduled for cesarean section, as diabetes may affect stomach fullness. Additionally, it will investigate the relation between demographic and clinical variables and CSA values. This research can shed light on diabetes' influence on aspiration risk in pregnancy and evaluate fasting guidelines, underscoring the significance of gastric ultrasound.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in women with gestational diabetes's health conditions. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Can Qigong control blood glucose in women with gestational diabetes? - Can Qigong improve mood and sleep in women with gestational diabetes? Participants will required to follow the research team for 3 months of qigong practice。 If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare Qigong groups to see if Qigong's effects.
Rationale: Gestational diabetes is currently treated by the one-size-fits-all-approach. Treatment efficacy is poorly defined and inconsiderate of patients clinical presentation Objective: To characterize the efficacy of pharmacological treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus between patients with distinct metabolic phenotypes Study design: Prospective observational study, in metformin-treatment efficacy is compared between patients with GDM caused by insulin resistance and patients with GDM caused by low insulin secretion. Study population: A prospective cohort of 103 women with diagnosed gestational diabetes mellitus treated by metformin. Main study parameters/endpoints: Primary outcomes is the glucose-disposition-index in late pregnancy (35-37 weeks gestation) and requirement for supplemental insulin-treatment. Secondary outcomes include insulin sensitivity (Matsuda-index), insulin secretion (Stumvoll-index), HbA1c, gestational weight gain, body composition, physical activity, eating behavior, plasma biomarkers, glucose control, and maternal and infant pregnancy outcomes.
The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a glucose tolerance disorder during pregnancy, is increasing. In Germany, it reached 8.58 % in 2019. Standardized treatment has reduced complications for mother and child. Blood self-measurement is currently used to monitor glucose levels, but it is burdensome and disliked by patients. Flash Glucose Monitoring (FGM) was approved in 2017, but its routine use lacks sufficient data. This pilot project aims to study the impact of FGM on patient satisfaction and adherence to therapy. The hypothesis is that FGM will improve patient experience and increase therapy adherence. The study will include 100 GDM-diagnosed women who will be randomly assigned to FGM or SMBG treatment. The primary endpoint is treatment satisfaction and adherence, measured through step count, physical activity, food error count, and weight gain. The project aims to provide data for patient-centered decision-making on glucose monitoring systems, following the principles of the Association of Diabetes Counseling and Training Professions in Germany (VDBD).
We propose a pragmatic, unblinded, randomized controlled, single center trial of 56 pregnant individuals with Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Our study proposes a pragmatic randomized control trial of patient led rapid titration of basal insulin compared to standard therapy. There is a planned subgroup analysis of patients with and without concomitant metformin usage. Patients will continue routine clinic visits. Patients who are initiated on basal insulin or started on night-time basal insulin within 7 days will be approached about the study. Patients who agree to be enrolled will sign informed consent.
To conduct a pragmatic, non-blinded randomized controlled trial (pRCT) of immediate in-patient postpartum OGTT prior to delivery discharge (intervention) versus 4-12 week outpatient postpartum OGTT (current standard care) to improve the frequency of post-partum diabetes screening among individuals with a pregnancy complicated by GDM.
Poor glycaemic control in pregnancy is a major factor leading to obstetric complications and future maternal-offspring diseases. This phenomenon is evidenced in women with type 1 diabetes (T1DM), and is worrisome since it is aggravating the disease burden of this and next generations. Exercise is a promising tool to improve glucose control during pregnancy and thus avoid adverse consequences. The MERIT1D study will explore when is exercise (before or after lunch) more effective to improve postprandial glycaemic control in pregnant and non-pregnant women (of reproductive age) with T1DM, and the mechanisms underlying these metabolic responses.
The obesity epidemic is growing worldwide and in the UK this is perpetuated with a third of women classified as overweight/obese in 2020. Many of these woman are of childbearing age and go on to have high risk pregnancies which are often complicated by gestational or pre-existing (type 2 diabetes mellitus (GDM, T2DM). Bariatric surgery is the most successful treatment of sustainable weight loss and is associated with a reduction in rates of GDM, pre-eclampsia, delivery of large babies but increased risk of delivery of small babies and preterm delivery. The aims of the study are to investigate the maternal and fetal/neonatal, biophysical and biochemical, intra-uterine environment and postnatal profile of pregnancies: 1. affected by maternal obesity and/or GDM/T2DM compared to pregnancies with normal maternal body mass index (BMI). 2. with previous maternal bariatric surgery compared to pregnancies without previous bariatric surgery but matched for maternal pre-surgery and early pregnancy BMI.
