Maternal Serum Pentraxin 3 in Early Pregnancy to Predict Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Completed
Conditions
Pregnancy Complications Affecting Fetus (Diagnosis)
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: 75gOGTT
Registration Number
NCT03563638
Lead Sponsor
Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital
Brief Summary

To investigate the association of maternal serum concentrations of pentraxin 3 in early pregnancy with gestational diabetes mellitus and to explore its potential value in the prediction of GDM.

Detailed Description

We recruited all pregnant women for the first checkup in our hospital . Maternal fasting serum PTX3 levels, fasting plasma glucose and fasting insulin and other factors were measured. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed at 24-28 weeks in all participants. According to the occurrence of GDM, subjects were divided into two groups: GDM group and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group.

GDM group75gOGTTWomen with maternal age ≥ 18 years, singleton pregnancy, primipara, no smoking, confirmed gestation≤20 weeks and spontaneous conception were invited to participate in the study,and excluded if they had multiple pregnancy, pre-gestational diabetes mellitus, hypertensive disorders, preterm delivery, cardiovascular disease, immunological disease, glucocorticoid therapy, or other severe illness,and fetal abnormalities occurred during pregnancy were also excluded from the study.GDM was verified on the 75gOGTT at 24-28 gestational weeks.The diagnosis of GDM is made when any of the following plasma glucose values are met or exceeded: FPG≥5.1 mmol/L and/or 1h-PG ≥10.0 mmol/L and/or 2h-PG ≥8.5 mmol/ L.
NGT group75gOGTTWomen with maternal age ≥ 18 years, singleton pregnancy, primipara, no smoking, confirmed gestation≤20 weeks and spontaneous conception were invited to participate in the study. Women were excluded if they had multiple pregnancy, pre-gestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM), hypertensive disorders, preterm delivery, cardiovascular disease, immunological disease, glucocorticoid therapy, or other severe illness. if there were fetal abnormalities including chromosomally abnormal fetuses and/or structural defects and fetal growth restriction occurred during pregnancy were also excluded from the study.GDM was verified on the 75gOGTT at 24-28 gestational weeks.those who not met the criteria were the NCT group.
