Study on Clinical Value of Vitamin D in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion

August 17, 2023 updated by: Jianmei Xia

The Role and Mechanism of Vitamin D in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion Based on Maternal Fetal Interface Immune Tolerance

The observational study is to compare vitamin D deficiency and related indicators among different spontaneous abortions in describe female reproductive health.The main question aim to answer is: the possible pathogenesis of recurrent spontaneous abortion caused by vitamin D.

Participants, who visit the RSA specialty clinic, will provide medical history information, regularly exam based on the condition, following up on pregnancy status.Participants will be asked to supply vitamin D preparation and do moderate exercise outdoors, comparing the effect after treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of the effect of vitamin D supplementation on adverse pregnancy outcomes1
Time Frame: average of 1 year
Through outpatient follow-up, follow-up and inpatient information, pregnancy outcomes are classified according to Williams obstetrics, such as empty sac which refers to the absence of a fetal sac or embryo bud (the amniotic sac is empty).
average of 1 year
Rate of the effect of vitamin D supplementation on adverse pregnancy outcomes2
Time Frame: average of half of a year
Through outpatient follow-up, follow-up and inpatient information, pregnancy outcomes are classified according to Williams obstetrics, such as biochemical pregnancy which refers to the phenomenon where the sperm and egg combine but fail to return to the uterus for implantation, leading to miscarriage along with menstruation.
average of half of a year
Rate of the effect of vitamin D supplementation on adverse pregnancy outcomes3
Time Frame: average of half of a year
Through outpatient follow-up, follow-up and inpatient information, pregnancy outcomes are classified according to Williams obstetrics, such as loss of fetal heart rate which refers to the cessation of fetal heartbeat during pregnancy leading to miscarriage.
average of half of a year
Rate of the effect of vitamin D supplementation on adverse pregnancy outcomes4
Time Frame: average of half of a year
Through outpatient follow-up, follow-up and inpatient information, pregnancy outcomes are classified according to Williams obstetrics, such as spontaneous miscarriage in large months (greater than 12 weeks but less than 28 weeks) which refers to the cause of fetal death in the uterus, vaginal bleeding or flowing and abdominal pain leading to miscarriage.
average of half of a year
Rate of the effect of vitamin D supplementation on adverse pregnancy outcomes5
Time Frame: average of half of a year
Through outpatient follow-up, follow-up and inpatient information, pregnancy outcomes are classified according to Williams obstetrics, such as failure of fetal heart rate which the inability of the fetus to detect heartbeat leading to miscarriage.
average of half of a year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The difference of age in different number of spontaneous abortions
Time Frame: one day
Record patients' age through initial visit.
one day
The difference of BMI in different number of spontaneous abortion
Time Frame: one day
Record patients' height and weight through initial visit, and then calculate according to BMI formula.
one day
The difference of uterine artery resistance parameter S/D in different number of spontaneous abortions
Time Frame: dynamic monitoring, average of half of a year
Use a three-dimensional ultrasound diagnostic instrument(GEVoluson-E10 or E8, USA) with a frequency of 5-9 MHz intracavity probe (non pregnancy) or 3-7 MHz abdominal probe (pregnancy) to examine bilateral S/D. Unpregnant patients were in mid luteal phase(5-7 days after ovulation), while pregnant patients were at 10 weeks of pregnancy.
dynamic monitoring, average of half of a year
The abnormality of some embryonic chromosomes tested voluntarily in spontaneous abortions
Time Frame: a month
use SNP gene chips to detect the embryonic chromosomes in spontaneous abortion; extract the genomic DNA of aborted embryo tissue, perform whole genome chromosome detection and determine whether the corresponding fragment or site is abnormal.
a month
The change of plasma VD content in spontaneous abortions before and after supplying vitamin D
Time Frame: average of 1 year
VD content was detected by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry using DISIGNS reagent. Dynamically monitor plasma VD at least twice every two months before and after treatment, and monitor early, mid, and late pregnancy each once after conception.
average of 1 year
The change of the level of plasma anticardiolipin antibody in spontaneous abortions before and after supplying vitamin D
Time Frame: average of 1 year
ACA level was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using EUROIMMUN reagent. dynamically monitor plasma anticardiolipin antibody at least twice every two months before and after treatment, and monitor early, mid, and late pregnancy each once after conception.
average of 1 year
