About this study

Official title: Different Characteristics of Gut and Oral Microbiota of Women With Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

The study aimed to clarify the characteristics of the intestinal and oral microbiome of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus(GDM) patients during the whole pregnancy, try to clarify the relationship between the microbiome and GDM.

Read the detailed description

The aims of the study are to reveal the possibly natural change of the gut and oral microbiome of GDM patients during pregnancy, and to explorer whether GDM happened during pregnancy are associated with the maternal gut and oral microbiomes. As a perspective cohort study, the researchers will recruit pregnant women in early pregnancy(before 13 gestational weeks)and following the pregnancies till delivery. The stool samples and saliva samples of the recruits will be collected in 9~14,24~28 and 32~37 gestational weeks separately. The investigators will also perform oral examination between 24~28 weeks and sample subgingival plaque for test. Overall, all samples will be examined use 16S rRNA gene sequencing to analyze microbiome. And part of the samples of GDM patients will be analyzed using metagenomics. Combine with the pregnancy outcomes, the differences of gut and oral microbiome between GDM patients and healthy women will be expected, as well as the natural change during pregnancy.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04420507
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
GDM grouppregnant women who are diagnosed after 75g OGTT test between 24~27+6 gestational weeks
health grouppregnant women who pass the 75g OGTT test and aren't diagnosed as GDM, and also don't have any other conditions, like hypertensive disorders, IBD, gastrointestinal ulcer, and so on.

What is being measured

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

  1. the gut and oral microbiome of GDM patients during pregnancy

    The composition and species of gut and oral microbiome of GDM patients,separately in the first trimester(9-14 gestational weeks), the second trimester (24-28 gestational weeks) and the third trimester(32-37 gestational weeks).

    Measured: the first trimester(9-14 gestational weeks), the second trimester (24-28 gestational weeks) and the third trimester(32-37 gestational weeks)

  2. the gut and oral microbiome of healthy pregnant women

    The composition and species of gut and oral microbiome of healthy pregnant women ,separately in the first trimester(9-14 gestational weeks), the second trimester (24-28 gestational weeks) and the third trimester(32-37 gestational weeks).

    Measured: the first trimester(9-14 gestational weeks), the second trimester (24-28 gestational weeks) and the third trimester(32-37 gestational weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The glucose level during pregnancy

    The fasting blood glucose level and the glycosylated albumin level in the first trimester(9-14 gestational weeks), the second trimester (24-28 gestational weeks) and the third trimester(32-37 gestational weeks). And the result of 75gOGTT test.

    Measured: the first trimester(9-14 gestational weeks), the second trimester (24-28 gestational weeks) and the third trimester(32-37 gestational weeks)
