About this study

Official title: Explorative Study: Diagnosis and Medical Care of Disturbances of Glucose Metabolism in Pregnant Women With a History of Bariatric Surgery, Normal Weight and Obese Pregnant Women

In this study glucose metabolism of pregnant women with a history of bariatric surgery, obese pregnant women and normal weight pregnant women was investigated. Three to six months after delivery the assessment of Glucose metabolism was repeated and the amount of ectopic lipids in the liver, heart and muscle was measured.

Read the detailed description

In this study pregnant women with a history of bariatric surgery, normal weight and obese pregnant women were invited to participate. Between the 24th and the 28th week of pregnancy an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), as well as an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) was conducted. Three to six months after delivery the examinations were repeated. In addition the ectopic lipid content in the liver, heart and the muscle was measured with 1H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging three to six months post partum. The aim of this study was to compare the glucose metabolism during pregnancy between the three groups as well as to investigate the changes three to six months after delivery.

What participants receive

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

  • OGTTOther

    A standardized 75g oral Glucose tolerance test was accomplished.

  • IVGTTOther

    For the exact assessment of Glucose metabolism in the study participants an intravenous Glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) was accomplished

  • 1H-magnetic resonance spectroscopyOther

    For the assessment of the ectopic lipid content in the liver, heart and the muscle a 1H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy was accomplished three to six months after delivery

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of glucose metabolism using an oral Glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and an intravenous Glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) in pregnant women with a history of bariatric surgery, as well as three to six months after delivery

    In this study the Glucose metabolism (including beta cell function, Insulin resistance and Insulin secretion) of pregnant women with a history of bariatric surgery was investigated with an OGTT and an IVGTT between the 24th and the 28th week of pregnancy. In Detail a measurement of the dynamic changes of Glucose, glucagon, C-peptide, Insulin and GLP-1 Levels during the OGTT and the IVGTT in pregnant women with a history of bariatric surgery was done. Three to six months after delivery the OGTT and the IVGTT were repeated and a 1H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy for the measurement of the amount of ectopic lipids in the liver, heart and the muscle was done.

    Measured: up to 10 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OGTT, IVGTT and 1H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy in people with Bariatric Surgery Candidate and Pregnancy Complications, run by Medical University of Vienna.

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 3 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 16 Jun 2017. 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?

Assessment of glucose metabolism using an oral Glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and an intravenous Glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) in pregnant women with a history of bariatric surgery, as well as three to six months after delivery (time frame: up to 10 months). 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 NCT03190148, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Jun 2017.
