About this study

In the current literature, there are not enough studies related to the use of uterine artery Doppler indices in the second trimester for the prediction of GDM. Considering that it may be useful in the prediction of GDM in low-risk patient groups for GDM, it was found useful to consider uterine artery Doppler analysis within the scope of this study.In this study, the investigators aimed to assess the value of second-trimester uterine artery Doppler analysis in the prediction of GDM in a low- risk population.

Read the detailed description

This retrospective research was conducted between June 2020 and December 2021 at the Perinatology Clinic of Haseki Training and Research Hospital. Maternal age between 18 and 42 years and gestational age between 18 and 23 weeks were the inclusion criteria.Pregnant women's computerized records were used to compare the relevant data of women diagnosed with gestational diabetes and women with normal glucose tolerance . Transabdominal ultrasonography was performed for anatomical scanning, and the uterine artery Doppler was obtained using ultrasonographic devices with a 2.0-7.0 megahertz convex probe. The uterine artery waveforms were obtained using pulsed-wave Doppler with an insonation angle of 30° and a peak systolic velocity greater than 60 cm/s. Three identical waveforms were obtained consecutively on each side. In addition to recording the presence or absence of notching, the mean uterine artery pulsatility index (UAPI) was also obtained. Abnormal uterine artery Doppler was defined as a mean UAPI greater than the 95th percentile for each gestation.Increased uterine artery pulsatility index and/or diastolic notch in the uterine artery between 18-23 weeks of pregnancy can predict the risk of GDM in pregnant women.

What is being measured

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

  1. Uterine artery Doppler ultrasonography in gestational diabetes mellitus

    To investigate and compare uterine artery pulsatility index by Doppler ultrasonography in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and without to non-diabetic controls.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Prediction of GDM with uterine artery pulsatility index cut-offs

    Cut off values of uterine artery pulsatility index will be estimated to predict GDM

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gestational Diabetes, run by Haseki 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 4 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 4 Aug 2022. 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?

Uterine artery Doppler ultrasonography in gestational diabetes mellitus (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 18 months). 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 4 Aug 2022.
