In an effort to better understand the potential independent effect of maternal obesity on fetal growth, investigators designed a prospective study, comparing fetal growth between normal weight (18.5 ≤ BMI < 25 kg/m2) or obese pregnant women (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2)… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Impact of Maternal Obesity on Fetal Development and Perinatal Events. Analysis of the Determinants of Fetal Growth.

This was a prospective bi-centric study, exposed-unexposed. In an effort to better understand the potential independent effect of maternal obesity on fetal growth, investigators designed a prospective study, comparing fetal growth between normal weight (18.5 ≤ BMI < 25 kg/m2) or obese pregnant women (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2), while maternal diabetes and hyperglycaemia was screened and treated throughout pregnancy.

Read the detailed description

The study population concerned obese pregnant women (BMI ≥ 30 kg / m² before pregnancy) and their newborn and normal weight pregnant women (18.5 ≤IMC <25 kg/m²) and their newborn as control. Inclusion criteria were body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2 or 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25 kg/m2, 18 ≤ age ≤ 40 years, singleton pregnancy. Exclusion criteria were: 25 ≤ BMI <30 kg/m2, age < 18 or > 40 years, multiple pregnancy, first consultation after 18 WG, pregestational diabetes, obesity due to genetic disorder or secondary to intracranial tumor or radiotherapy, bariatric surgery, chronic diseases other than the obesity, inability to converse in French language. The matching criteria for controls were: age ± 5 years, primigravida or multigravida, duration of gestation ± 4 weeks.

The main objective of this project was to assess the independent effect of maternal obesity:

  • on the weight and adipose tissue of newborn
  • on the function of adipose tissue (production of leptin and adiponectin)
  • on fetal growth factors (C-peptide, IGF-1)
  • on carbohydrate metabolism of the newborn. Two maternities were involved in the study: Pitié Salpêtrière and Armand Trousseau, in Paris, France. This research was conducted over a 3 years period. The duration of participation of each woman corresponded to the duration of pregnancy care and duration of care for the newborn immediately after birth, usually the length of stay in the maternity.

The only differences compared to the usual care included:

  • Additional oral glucose tolerance test at 32 weeks of gestation;
  • Determination of fasting blood glucose during late pregnancy
  • Maternal blood samples on arrival at the delivery room
  • Drawing blood from the umbilical cord after section;
  • Skinfold measurement of the newborn within 72 hours of life.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Obstetric management in people with Obesity, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 6 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

ponderal index measured by a balance (time frame: at birth). The study lists 3 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 6 Apr 2016.
