About this study

Official title: Adverse Obstetric Outcomes in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Inositol Stereoisomears

Comparison of different inositol stereoisomears in preventing adverse obstetric outcomes in non-obese pregnant women at high risk for gestational diabetes mellitus.

Read the detailed description

The investigators compared outcomes from metabolic and obstetric point of view in GDM pregnant non-obese patient with different stereoisomears of inositol supply. Dietary control and placebo or inositol steroisomears were administered starting at the enrolling time (first fasting oral glucose above 92 mg%; usually before 20 weeks gestations') till the delivery and/or pregnancy end/termination. Oral glucose tolerance test results at 24-28 weeks' gestation was evaluated (as glucose values and oGTT screening). Fetal growth, delivery data, obstetric outcomes and necessity of insulin therapy were taken into account.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. OGTT result

    OGTT is the mainstay of obstetric outcomes in GDM

    Measured: 24-28 weeks' gestation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Fetal measurements at third trimester

    Centiles of fetal measurements and amniotic fluid volume

    Measured: 28 weeks

  2. Delivery data

    Gestational age at delivery Route of delivery Fetal gender Fetal weight (grams and centiles) Neonatal hypoglycemia

    Measured: 25-42 weeks gestations'

  3. Adverse obstetric outcome

    Abortion Preterm delivery Polyhydramnios IUGR Macrosomia Fetal distress Preterm delivery pPROM Neonatal morbility (NICU stay, low glucose levels, etc.) Neonatal mortality Cerebral palsy Route of delivery Dystocia Etc.

    Measured: from first elevated oral fasting glucose (above 92 mg%) till the end/termination of pregnancy (latter 42 weeks gestation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of GDM, run by G. d'Annunzio University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

OGTT result (time frame: 24-28 weeks' gestation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jan 2013.
