miRNA (microRNA) and FGF21 (Fibroblast Growth Factor-21) Profile in First Trimester and Gestational Diabetes Prediction

March 16, 2026 updated by: Kuntharee Traisrisilp, Chiang Mai University

miRNA and FGF21 Profile in First Trimester and Efficacy of Gestational Diabetes Prediction and Pregnancy Outcomes

The goal of this observational study is to compare miRNA and FGF21 in pregnancy with and without GDM (Gestational Diabetes) The main question it aims to answer that miRNA and FGF21 are different between two groups.

Participants will be retrieved blood sample during first trimester and undergone 100 gm OGTT (oral glucose challenge test) during 24-28 weeks of gestation.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Pregnant women who attended antenatal care at Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai hospital during first trimester were recruited.

Participants received routine standard prenatal care except,

  1. additional blood test during 11-13 week 6 days (Blood was collected for further analysis)
  2. performed 75gm OGTT during 24-28 week

Baseline data and pregnancy outcome were reviewed.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Pregnancy with GDM
Pregnant women who positive test for 100gm OGTT (abnormal 2 or more blood glucose level according NDDG (National Diabetes Data Group) criteria)
Blood test for miRNA and FGF21. However, the laboratory result is not reported and not involved in management
Pregnancy without GDM
Pregnant women who negative test for 100gm OGTT
