Vitamin D levels in newborn cord blood and health outcomes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at vitamin D levels in a newborn's umbilical cord blood to understand what affects them and whether they relate to health outcomes. It uses leftover blood from routine delivery and involves no extra procedures.

This study tests giving high-dose vitamin D to preterm infants who need intensive care soon after birth, to see if it helps them. It may improve their health and development.
This study looks at how vitamin D levels in the blood relate to how sick children with respiratory infections are while in the intensive care unit. It aims to see if low vitamin D is linked to more severe illness, which could guide future treatment.
This study tests how accurately a vitamin D blood test works with fresh versus frozen samples. Your blood samples will help researchers understand the best way to store and measure vitamin D levels.
This trial checks if low vitamin D levels can make a drop in blood pressure more likely or severe during a C-section with spinal anesthesia. It may help find ways to better monitor or prevent blood pressure problems during surgery.
This study looks at vitamin D levels and how they relate to overall health in British African-Caribbean women. It may help researchers understand whether vitamin D support or lifestyle changes could benefit this group.
This study looks at vitamin A levels in cord blood (blood from the umbilical cord after birth) and how they relate to health outcomes for babies born very early (before 32 weeks). Participating may help researchers understand if vitamin A affects prematurity complications.
