About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of positive antiphospholipid antibodies among women with preeclampsia and to determine the effect of antiphospholipid antibodies on the severity of preeclampsia and the obstetric outcomes

Read the detailed description

For all women included in the study, blood samples will be tested for anticardiolipin antibodies and lupus anticoagulant. The clinical details of all women will be collected by reviewing their hospital and prenatal records. The following clinical characteristics will be evaluated: maternal age, previous gestations, parity, past or family history of preeclampsia, gestational age at the onset of preeclampsia, gestational age at delivery and birth weight. The following pregnancy and delivery complications will be assessed: placental insufficiency, intrauterine growth restriction, fetal loss (stillbirth) and early neonatal death.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preeclampsia, run by Mohamed Sayed Abdelhafez at 1 site in Egypt.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. 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?

Rate of positive antiphospholipid antibodies (time frame: 20 weeks to 42 weeks gestational age). 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 30 Oct 2023.
