  • Protocol summary

    Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the effects of vitamin D supplementation on insulin resistance, inflammatory factor and biomarkers of oxidative stress in gestational diabetes. Study design: Double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial. Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria: Pregnant women aged 18-40 years diagnosed with GDM at 24-28 weeks gestation will be included in this study. The use of substitute treatments including hormone or vitamin supplements as well as those with preeclampsia, complete bed rest (CBR), intrauterine fetal death (IUFD), placenta abruption and preterm delivery will be excluded in the study. Population and sample size: 60 patients with GDM among pregnant women of eligible and referred to Naghavi Clinic affiliated to Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran in the study will be selected. Intervention: Patients will be assigned to receive either vitamin D supplement (intervention group) or placebo (control group). Fasting blood samples will be taken at baseline and after 6 weeks intervention to measure metabolic profiles, inflammatory factor and biomarkers of oxidative stress. Start and End Date of Intervention: 4 months (May 12, 2013-September 12, 2013). Outcomes: Baseline and End-of-trial fasting plasma glucose (FPG), serum insulin, hs-CRP levels, plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and total glutathione (GSH).

    هدف: هدف این مطالعه تعیین اثرات مکمل یاری ویتامین D بر روی مقاومت به انسولین، فاکتور التهابی و بیومارکرهای استرس اکسیداتیو در دیابت بارداری است. طراحی مطالعه: تصادفي کارآزمایی بالینی دو سوکور. معیار ورود و خروج مطالعه: زنان باردار 40-18 ساله مبتلا به دیابت بارداری (GDM) در هفته 28-24 بارداری، در این مطالعه وارد خواهند شد. استفاده از درمان های جایگزین از قبیل هورمون یا مکمل ویتامینی و همچنین آنهایی که مبتلا به پری اکلامسی، استراحت مطلق، مرگ جنینی داخل رحمی، جدا شدن جفت و زایمان زودرس می شوند از مطالعه خارج خواهند شد. حجم نمونه و جمعیت مورد مطالعه: 60 زن باردار مبتلا به دیابت بارداری واجد شرایط و ارجاع شده به کلینیک نقوی وابسته به دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کاشان، کاشان، ایران در مطالعه انتخاب خواهند شد. مداخله مورد مطالعه: بیماران برای دریافت مکمل ویتامین D (گروه مداخله) یا پلاسبو (گروه کنترل) تقسیم خواهند شد. نمونه خون ناشتا در ابتدای مطالعه و 6 هفته بعد از مداخله برای تعیین پروفایل های متابولیک، فاکتور التهابی و بیومارکرهای استرس اکسیداتیو از بیماران گرفته خواهد شد. زمان مداخله: 4 ماه (از 22 اردیبهشت 1392 تا 22 شهریور 1392). پيامدها: گلوکز پلاسمایی ناشتا، سطوح سرمی انسولین، hs-CRP، ظرفیت آنتی اکسیدانی توتال و گلوتاتیون توتال پلاسما در ابتدا و انتهای مداخله اندازه گیری خواهد شد.

    To decrease potential confounding effects, all participants will have stratified randomization according to BMI and weeks of gestation. Then, participants in each block will be randomly allocated into two treatment groups to take either vitamin D supplement or placebo. Randomization will be done by the use of Stat Trek software. Participants, investigators or the assessors of the outcomes are also unaware of the study groups. https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx

    برای کاهش اثرات مخدوش کنندگی بالقوه، همه شرکت کنندگان بر اساس نمایه توده بدنی و هفته بارداری تصادفی سازی لایه ای خواهند شد. سپس، افراد در هر بلوک به طور تصادفی به دو گروه برای دریافت مکمل یاری ویتامین D یا پلاسبو تخصیص داده می شوند. تصادفی سازی با استفاده از نرم افزار Stat Trek انجام می شود. شرکت کنندگان و هم محققان یا ارزیابان پیامد از تخصیص گروههای مطالعه بی اطلاعند. https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx

    Randomization and allocation will be concealed from the researchers and participants until the final analyses are completed. Another person at the maternity clinics affiliated with Kashan University of Medical Sciences, who is not involved in the trial and not aware of random sequences, will be assigned the participants to the numbered bottles of capsules. Supplements and placebo are in the same packaging at the Barij Essence pharmaceutical company. Only the code is written on the packages. Patients and researcher do not know the type of drug and after analyzing the data, packet codes are decoded.

    تصادفی سازی و تخصیص تصادفی از محققان و شرکت کنندگان در مطالعه تا زمان تکمیل آنالیز آماری پنهان خواهد ماند. فرد دیگری در کلینیک زایمان وابسته به دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کاشان که در این کارآزمایی بالینی نقشی ندارد و از تخصیص تصادفی آگاه نیست، به شرکت کنندگان در مطالعه، بطری های شماره گذاری شده کپسول ها را تخصیص خواهد داد. مکمل ها و پلاسبو در شرکت داروسازی باریج اسانس در بسته بندی های مشابه قرار می گیرند و بر روی آنها فقط کد گذاشته می شود.بیمار و محقق از نوع مداخله بی خبرند و بعد از آنالیز داده ها، کدهای بسته ها رمز گشایی میشود.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
To decrease potential confounding effects, all participants will have stratified randomization according to BMI and weeks of gestation. Then, participants in each block will be randomly allocated into two treatment groups to take either vitamin D supplement or placebo. Randomization will be done by the use of Stat Trek software. Participants, investigators or the assessors of the outcomes are also unaware of the study groups. https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Randomization and allocation will be concealed from the researchers and participants until the final analyses are completed. Another person at the maternity clinics affiliated with Kashan University of Medical Sciences, who is not involved in the trial and not aware of random sequences, will be assigned the participants to the numbered bottles of capsules. Supplements and placebo are in the same packaging at the Barij Essence pharmaceutical company. Only the code is written on the packages. Patients and researcher do not know the type of drug and after analyzing the data, packet codes are decoded.
