About this study

Read the detailed description

Background: Recent studies have found, in both developed and developing countries, there is still a considerable number of pregnant women in iodine deficiency status. Our overall aim is to monitor iodine status of pregnant women in China, and to examine the correlation between maternal urine iodine concentration (UIC) and newborn physical development level.

Design: prospective cohort study

Methods: During August - December 2015,250 participants(28-32 weeks' gestation) were selected to participate in the study.The investigators collect the spot urine samples(n=750) once every two weeks.

Setting: Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine.

Participants: 150 normal pregnant women and 100 pregnant women with gestational diabetes (28-32 weeks' gestation) and their newborns were selected to participate the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. urinary iodine (UI) concentrations

    Measured: up to three months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. thyroid stimulating hormone level of newborns

    Measured: up to three months

  2. daily iodine intake of pregnant women

    Daily iodine intake was estimated using the total diet study approach

    Measured: up to three months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pregnancy and Iodine Deficiency, run by qingya tang at 2 sites in China.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 25 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

urinary iodine (UI) concentrations (time frame: up to three months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02586220, which also lists 30 linked publications.

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 25 Mar 2020.
