About this study

Official title: Incidence of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Infants of Diabetic Mothers Attending in NICU

To evaluate all full term infants of diabetic mother for the presence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who admitted in NICU at Assiut University Children Hospital and to follow up of these cases after 6 months for recovery.

Read the detailed description

Diabetes is the most common endocrine disorder complicating pregnancy. Incidence of both type-I and type-II diabetes is increasing, throughout the world. As the incidence of diabetes continues to rise and increasingly affects individuals of all ages including young adults and children, women in child bearing age are at increased risk of diabetes during pregnancy [1].

The type 1 diabetes around the time of conception produces marked risk of embryopathy (neural tube defects, cardiac defects, and caudal regression syndrome) as these mother have high glycosylated hemoglobin at the time of embryogenesis (around 6-8 weeks of gestation) rather than IDM that are born to type 2 diabetes mothers who have macrosomia and other milder problems. The mothers who have been diagnosed as severe and unstable type1 diabetes in the later part of gestation have high chances of neonate being more affected with intrauterine growth restriction, asphyxia, and fetal death [2] and [3].

Due to the teratogenic effect of maternal diabetes, the reported incidence of congenital malformations among the newborns of diabetic mothers is five times greater than that of the general population [4].

Cardiac malformations are one of the most common types of these malformations which occur in about 8.5% of cases that is about 10 times more than its incidence in normal population (0.8%) [5].

Fetuses exposed to maternal hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinism, are prone to develop hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It primarily affects the inter-ventricular septum, but can extend to the myocardium in more severe cases. Although the perinatal mortality rates associated with diabetes in pregnancy have declined considerably during the past eight decades and are now near those in the general population, it is only through continuing vigilance that such advances can be maintained. Both fetal and neonatal deaths occurred with increased frequency in diabetic pregnancies before the advent of modern management methods, and fetal deaths nationwide continue to be significantly higher among diabetic than non-diabetic pregnancies [6].

The most recent available data indicate that the relative risk of stillbirth in pregnancies complicated by type 1 diabetes (compared to the general population) is 2.9-4.3 folds, and for type 2 diabetes 2.5-4.5 fold [7].

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing echocardiography in people with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, run by Assiut University 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 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 21 Sep 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?

evaluate hypertrophic cardiomyopathty in IDM (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT06048562, which also lists 3 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 21 Sep 2023.
