This study tests whether screening for gestational diabetes (diabetes that starts during pregnancy) can be done earlier than usual in women who are at low risk for it. If you join, you may get an early test that could help catch and manage blood sugar issues sooner, which may be better for you and your baby.
This study follows pregnant women with gestational diabetes to see how health outcomes for both mothers and babies are affected. It may help improve care for future pregnancies.
This study looks at how changes in DNA (called epigenetics) might affect gestational diabetes in pregnancy. It aims to understand these changes using cell-free DNA from the mother and father.
This study compares two approaches for women with diet-controlled gestational diabetes at full term: waiting for labor to start on its own versus being induced (having labor started with medication) around week 39. It aims to see which approach leads to safer outcomes for both mother and baby.
This study will look at how insulin resistance works in the body by studying healthy adults. You may help researchers find new ways to understand and treat conditions like diabetes.
This study follows pregnant people to understand gestational diabetes (high blood sugar during pregnancy) and how it shows up and is monitored. It may help improve future screening and care for gestational diabetes.
