NCT02357667
This study will evaluate the differences in cardiovascular parameters between women with severe preterm preeclampsia and those without preeclampsia using echocardiography and maternal blood. The investigators will also look at associations of abnormal cardiovascular findings and immediate complications among a high risk cohort of pregnant African American women.
NCT02173210
This project is examining genetic and metabolic markers for the use of 17 hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17OHPC) in pregnant women with a history of preterm birth (PTB). 17OHPC has been associated with a 30-35% reduction in repeat PTB in women carrying a singleton gestation. However, it is not well known why it works for some women but not for others. There are limited available interventions for the prevention of recurrent PTB. This study will enroll 150 women at risk for PTB and eligible to receive 17OHPC, and expect that 80% will use 17OHPC and 20% will decline use. We will obtain blood samples and samples of cervical cells and cervical vaginal fluid. The objective of the study is to identify genetic, microbial and molecular markers that help to identify which women at risk for recurrent preterm birth will respond to 17OHPC and which women will not. The ultimate goal is to develop a personalized screening test based on these markers.
NCT03259347
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of two body acceptance programs for women. Participants may experience reduction of eating pathology and prevention of future obesity and eating disorders; may derive a sense of altruism and contribution to furthering understanding of a public health problem.
