Filter by:This is a sample collection study, participants will be required to collect one (if last menstrual period ≥12 months) or two (if last menstrual period <12 months) urine samples and return them to the study site, together with collection sample information. Participants having a menstrual cycle within the last 6 months will also be required to provide follow-up information on pregnancy status and date of next menstrual bleed.
Our study's principle purpose is to determine whether decreasing waiting time before being seen for antenatal care increases demand for and use of antenatal care services in Mozambique.
The aim of the research is to study humoral and cellular immunity in pregnant women for who the level of rubella virus antibodies is weakly positive, equivocal or negative with the usual laboratory technique.
QT interval prolongation, corrected for heart rate (QTc), either spontaneous or drug-induced, is associated with an increased risk of torsades de pointes and sudden death. Women are at higher risk of torsades de pointes, particularly during post-partum and the follicular phase. The aim of this study is to explore if QTc duration is prolonged during post-partum as compared to the 3rd trimester of pregnancy
In an experimental research, 100 nulliparous pregnant women who had referred to health care centers in Kermanshah were randomly selected and after taking Written Informed Consent letter, assigned into case and control groups. instruction based on TPB was provided just for the case group. Afterwards, post-test was taken by both groups and the results were analyzed.
This proposed study; Investigation of mechanisms for transmission of impaired glucose metabolism in infants exposed to diabetes in utero, will test the overarching hypothesis that impaired maternal substrate oxidation (metabolic inflexibility) and placental lipotoxicity are characteristics of diabetic pregnancies and in utero development within these conditions programs a metabolically inflexible phenotype in the offspring.
Study was a non-interventional, prospective study of pregnant women who agreed to provide information about their medication use and certain lifestyle factors on a periodic basis throughout their pregnancy. Volunteers were recruited by measures such as placement of pamphlets near pregnancy test kits in pharmacies and by links from carefully selected websites and social networking sites. Subjects were invited to learn about the study either through visiting the study web site or phoning a telephone number where a recorded message described the study and invite eligible women to register for participation. Participants were asked whether they prefer to provide data via the internet or by interactive voice response system (IVRS). Data were collected in the predominant natural languages of the four study countries: Denmark, the Netherlands, Poland, and the United Kingdom (UK). Data were collected on use of prescription and non-prescription medication, as well as on use of herbals and homeopathic medications. More information was be collected from women who provided their response over the internet than by phone, in order to best utilize the full capacity of internet- based data collection.
The Prenatal Nutrition and Psychosocial Health Outcomes (PreNAPS) study was a two year collaboration between Gulu, Makarere, Cornell, and Tufts Universities. The PreNAPs study's primary goals were: a) to determine the differential impacts of food insecurity on gestational weight gain and prenatal depression, and b) to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the relationship between food insecurity and weight gain and/depression among HIV infected and HIV uninfected pregnant women in Gulu, Northern Uganda.
Prenatal care is defined as preventive healthcare characterized by regular check-ups by doctors or midwives to treat and prevent potential health problems throughout the course of the pregnancy. The investigators propose that a mobile app for prenatal care has the potential to provide patient-tailored, risk-appropriate prenatal educational content and may facilitate vital sign and weight checks between visits. The investigators describe the methods used to develop and test the effectiveness of a mobile app for prenatal care to safely reduce the number of in-person visits to the obstetrician (OB) compared to standard of care.
The objective of this research study is to evaluate a culturally tailored sexual and reproductive health intervention among American Indian (AI) youth. Specifically, the investigators aim to evaluate the impact of "Respecting the Circle of Life: Mind, Body and Spirit" on knowledge, attitude and behavioral outcomes associated with risk for unprotected sex, sexually transmitted infection (STI) and unintended pregnancy through a randomized controlled trial on the White Mountain Apache (WMA) reservation. The investigators will examine whether the RCL intervention effectively reduces risky sexual behavior among AI adolescents (11-19 years old), with long term goals of reducing teen pregnancy and incidence/prevalence of STIs. The evaluation will focus on well-established intermediate outcomes/risky sexual behaviors that predict long-term impact on teen pregnancy and STI incidence.
