About this study

Official title: Research of Serum Procalcitonin, Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, C-Reactive Protein And Leukocyte Levels in Fertile Missed Abortion Cases

Aim: The serum procalcitonin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, c-reactive protein and leukocyte values will be compared between fertile missed abortion diagnosed pregnants and fertile normal pregnants to determine the presence of subclinical infection in the etiology of missed abortion

Read the detailed description

The study group will consist of 30 fertile, under 35 years old women having for the first time missed abortus diagnosis in the Obstetrics Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Medicine Faculty of Karadeniz Technical University, Medical Faculty of Medicine. As control group, 30 cases with the same trimester, fertile, and under 35 years old who had referred to Obstetrics clinic, who had no systemic disease, will be included in the study. Blood samples will be collected at the time of diagnosis of the patients with missed abortion and in normal pregnancy in the week of 20th gestational week and will send to Biochemistry laboratory to examine procalcitonin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, c-reactive protein and leukocyte values in their sera. The age, weight, gestational week, gravida (number), parity (number), abortus (number), body mass index, systemic diseases, blood group, smoking information, binary test results, and results of genetic analysis will be collected in both groups. The pathology results of the missed abortion group will also be collected. The results will statistically be compared in the SPSS 13.0 program in both groups.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Abortion, Missed, run by Karadeniz Technical University 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 3 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 26 Jun 2020. 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?

Serum LC (time frame: 01.01.2018- 15.02.2019). The study lists 4 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 26 Jun 2020.
