About this study

Official title: Characteristic and Modulation of Gut Microbiota on the Consequences of Pregnancy-based on the Maternal and Offspring Health Cohort

Since the incidence of maternal obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is on the rise globally, how to improve the intrauterine environment of the offspring and prevent obesity and metabolic diseases from the early life has become a medical research. Since 2012, journals such as Nature and Science have reported that intestinal micro-ecological environments composed of intestinal microbes and their interactions are involved in human body and energy metabolism, and a variety of metabolic diseases including obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The incidence is closely related. Although intestinal microbes have an important impact on human health, the research on intestinal microecology during pregnancy is still in its infancy. The current research is still unclear about the relationship between intestinal microecology and pregnancy outcomes and whether it can be a potential target for regulating maternal metabolism and fetal intrauterine environment. Therefore, this study aims to regulate overweight/obese pregnant women by using prebiotic-containing dairy products to explore the effects of interventions targeting intestinal microbes on glucose and lipid metabolism, insulin resistance and risk of GDM in overweight/obese pregnant women. In order to improve the intrauterine environment and reduce the risk of fetal diseases. It is of great significance and value to improve the quality of the birth population in China and to alleviate the medical economic burden caused by obesity and metabolic diseases.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Prebiotic-containing dairyDietary supplement

    The trained dietitian gives guidance on diet, exercise, and weight gain during pregnancy based on the Maternal Dietary Guidelines and Dietary Pagoda recommendations developed by the Chinese Institute of Maternal and Child Nutrition. On this basis, intervention was carried out using prebiotic-containing dairy products (200g/day).

  • Dietary interventionDietary supplement

    The trained dietitian gives guidance on diet, exercise, and weight gain during pregnancy based on the Maternal Dietary Guidelines and Dietary Pagoda recommendations developed by the Chinese Institute of Maternal and Child Nutrition.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus

    The diagnose of GDM based on the result of OGTT according to IADPSG criterion in 24 to 28 weeks. We will compare the incidence of GDM in these three groups.

    Measured: Up to 28 weeks

  2. Weight change during pregnancy

    We asked pregnant woman to weigh their weight using the same weighing scale in the morning of the inspection day after urinating and tell the obstetrician to record. Compare the weight gain during pregnancy among three groups.

    Measured: During pregnancy, an average of 38 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prebiotic-containing dairy and Dietary intervention in people with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Medical Nutrition Therapy, run by Capital Medical University at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 10 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 2 Aug 2021. 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 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?

The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (time frame: Up to 28 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
