Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test effect of dietary management program based on the nudge strategy in gestational diabetes mellitus patients. The main questions it aims to answer is whether the dietary management program is effective for the diet management behavior of gestational diabetes mellitus patients.

Participants will receive a 12 week dietary management program. The intervention group will receive a diet management program based on the nudge strategy, and the control group will receive a routine dietary management program. Researchers will compare two group's glycemic control and pregnancy outcomes and to see if effective for the diet management behavior.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Interventions

  • Behavioraldiet management program based on the nudge strategy

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes in blood glucose levels over time

    With the change of intervention and time, it is better for the fasting blood glucose to decrease; With the change of intervention and time, it is better that the 1hPG decreases; With the change of intervention and time, it is better that the 2hPG decreases.

    Time frame: Pre-intervention, 1-month post-intervention and 3-months post-intervention

Secondary outcomes

  1. pregnancy outcomes

    Number of Participants with Premature, Cesarean delivery, Gestational hypertension, Giant baby, Fetal intrauterine distress

    Time frame: During the delivery of pregnant women, the relevant data of pregnancy outcome were collected by consulting medical records or telephone follow-up.

Other outcomes

  1. Apgar score of newborn

    Apgar score at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth in both groups

    Time frame: Apgar score at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Nov 2022; primary completion for Dec 2022, 1 month later.

Of 307 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Diabetes, Gestational, half reached primary completion within 29 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 48. This study's planned 1 month is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 310 studies reached it within 28 months; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 48.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 14, 2022, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
