Trial summary

This study evaluates the effects of birth weight (BW) on ocular anterior segment parameters in preschool children using the Galilei Dual-Sheimpflug Analyzer (GD-SA). Children were measured by GD-SA and relationships between all anterior segment parameters obtained by this device and birth weight were analyzed. Read more about this study

About this study

This study evaluates the effects of birth weight (BW) on ocular anterior segment parameters in preschool children using the Galilei Dual-Sheimpflug Analyzer (GD-SA). Children were measured by GD-SA and relationships between all anterior segment parameters obtained by this device and birth weight were analyzed.

Read the detailed description

Preschoolers, who were born heavier, had thicker cornea and lens, longer axial length, and flatter corneal curve. The thicknesses and axial curves of central cornea within 7mm may be particularly associated with BW.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Birth Weight, run by Neon Hospital.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2015. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Measurements of anterior segment parameters in Full-Term Children by Galilei Dual-Scheimpflug Analyzer (time frame: 1 day). 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 9 Jun 2015.
