About this study

Official title: Evaluation of First-Trimester Maternal Serum Resistin in Hyperemesis Gravidarum

This cross-sectional case-control study was conducted in Tuzla State Hospital Obstetrics Clinic in Turkey. The study evaluated 400 pregnant women during their first trimester of pregnancy. Many pregnant women (50-90%) experience nausea and vomiting during their first trimester; however, some patients have a disease called "hyperemesis gravidarum" (HG) characterized by very severe nausea and vomiting that may require hospitalization. resistin" is a peptide which is secreted primarily by human adipocytes and mononuclear cells. Evidence suggests that resistin increases plasma glucose concentration, reduces glucose intake by adipocytes, and promotes insulin resistance. Considering the HG effect on endocrinologic and metabolic complications, we hypothesized that resistin levels in maternal serum may change in the presence of HG; therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate these resistin levels during the first trimester and their correlation with HG severity.

Study groups in NCT06757374
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mild HGExperimentalIn pregnant women admitted in the first trimester, blood samples were first taken and the PUQE-24 questionnaire was used to evaluate the severity of HG, and those with a score of ≤6 were considered as mild HG
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Resistin
Modarete HGExperimentalIn pregnant women admitted in the first trimester, blood samples were first taken and the PUQE-24 questionnaire was used to evaluate the severity of HG, and those with a score of 7-12 were considered as modarete HG
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Resistin
Severe HGExperimentalIn pregnant women admitted in the first trimester, blood samples were first taken and the PUQE-24 questionnaire was used to assess the severity of HG, and those with a score of ≥13 were considered to have severe HG.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Resistin

What is being measured

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

  1. PUQE

    the PUQE-24 questionnaire was used to evaluate the severity of HG, and those with a score of ≤6 were considered as mild HG, 6-12 as moderate HG, and ≥13 as severe HG

    Measured: Immediately after admission in the first trimester

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Resistin levels

    Resistin levels rise with HG severity

    Measured: Immediately after admission in the first trimester

  2. OGTT

    After 75 grams of solution was given, blood glucose values were evaluated again at 1st and 2nd hours. GDM was diagnosed when one of the 3 levels of blood sugar was reached or exceeded (Fasting: 92 mg/dl, 1 hour later: 180 mg/dl, 2 hours later: 153 mg/dl).

    Measured: admission in 24-28 th week in pregnancy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resistin in people with Hyperemesis Gravidarum - Severe and Resistin, run by Dr. Lutfi Kirdar Kartal Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 Jan 2025. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

PUQE (time frame: Immediately after admission in the first trimester). 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 NCT06757374, 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 3 Jan 2025.
