About this study

Official title: Biological Changes in the Adipose Tissue (RNA Profile) Among Pregnant Women With Diabetes

The aim of the research is to study the effect of miRNA, fat tissue and insulin resistance on the pathophysiology of diabetes during pregnancy. During the study fat tissue, Umbilical cord blood, placenta tissue and subcutaneous fat will be taken from pregnant diabetic woman over going a C-section. Healthy pregnant women will serve as a control group.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the research is to study the effect of miRNA, fat tissue and insulin resistance on the pathophysiology of diabetes during pregnancy. During the study:

  1. fat tissue, Umbilical cord blood, placenta tissue and subcutaneous fat will be taken from pregnant diabetic woman over going a C-section.
  2. Bloods will be analyzed for insulin, c-peptide, glucose and fat profile
  3. Placenta and fat tissue will be analyzed for miRNA and total RNA
  4. Clinical and anthropometric measurements will be taken from the mother
  5. Placenta status will be taken

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pregnancy and Diabetes, run by Hadassah Medical Organization.

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 6 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

Contact Uriel Elchalal, Proffessor (+972-2-6776424, Uriel@hadassah.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

miRNA profiling (time frame: samles are taken during C-section samples will be analyzed after completion of collection). 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 2 Sep 2016.
