Filter by:The overall aim of the PregMet 2 Study is to investigate whether metformin prevents late miscarriages and preterm deliveries in PCOS women treated with metformin from first trimester of pregnancy to delivery in a large, randomized, controlled, multi-centre trial setting. The investigators hypothesis is that metformin compared to placebo treatment from the first trimester to term, reduces the prevalence of late miscarriage (gestational week 13-22) and preterm birth (gestational week < 37) in PCOS women diagnosed according to Rotterdam 2003 consensus criteria, with singleton pregnancy.

They will be randomly divided into 2 groups. The group A will perform the exercises of Hatha Yoga for ten weeks, once a week group B postural follow the guidelines recommended for the treatment of these pains, for ten weeks. Will be used as a technique for evaluating the Visual Analogue Scale to measure pain intensity and confirmation tests of the lumbar and posterior pelvic pain in order to differentiate them. A descriptive statistical analysis of univariate and bivariate distributions will be made through frequency and graphical representation. The association between the variables will be tested by statistical tests: [chi-square (X ²)], Fisher's exact test, Student's t test or Mann-Whitney, [Student's t test to compare means], ANOVA for the analysis of effects between the groups. [The significance level is predetermined to 5%]. The data will be analyzed in EPI-INFO 2000. SAS 9.0 and from the database created .
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in the treatment of patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). In the randomised (double-blind, placebo-controlled) study 20 pregnant women with ICP received (random allocation of) either 450 mg/day UDCA or placebo for 14 days during the third trimester of pregnancy. The severity of pruritus was registered. Itching scores and serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, total bile acids, estradiol, progesterone, prolactin, cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen D-dimers (FIDD) and platelet count were assessed before the treatment and weekly thereafter. Data on pregnancy and delivery outcome was recorded and analysed.
The objectives of the present trial are to test the following three hypotheses in anovulatory women with PCOS: 1. Acupuncture protocol 1 plus CC (Arm A) is more likely to result in live birth than acupuncture protocol 2 combined with CC (Arm B), 2. Acupuncture protocol 2 plus CC (Arm B) is more likely to result in live birth than acupuncture protocol 1 plus placebo (Arm C), 3. Acupuncture protocol 1 plus placebo (Arm C) is more likely to result in live birth than acupuncture protocol 2 plus placebo (Arm D).
The aim is to investigate whether the implementation of a web-based support to women with type 1 diabetes during pregnancy and early motherhood can improve well-being and self management of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is associated with increased medical risks and increased psychosocial pressure in relation to childbearing. There is need for extended support from both health care professionals and peers. Web-based interventions can improve personal capacity and self-management in people with long- term illnesses but are not evaluated in childbearing women with type 1 diabetes. A web site prototype for full-size browsers and mobile devices has been developed through a participatory design by multidisciplinary researchers, health care professionals, experienced mothers with type 1 diabetes and web designers. In a randomised control study the developed web site offering information, communication with health care professionals, person-centred self-care diaries and online social community of included women, is provided to the intervention group in early pregnancy at admission to specialised antenatal clinics at six hospitals in Sweden. A control group will receive standard care (usual care). Total n = 160. Primary outcomes are Well-Being Questionnaire and Diabetes Empowerment Scale. The intervention offers proactive solutions for strengthening patients' decision making of diabetes in daily life during pregnancy and early motherhood, and is expected to increase their wellbeing, personal capacity and knowledge of diabetes.
