Trial Outcomes & Findings for Does Fish Oil Prevent Depression in Pregnancy and Postpartum? (NCT NCT00711971)

NCT ID: NCT00711971

Last Updated: 2017-04-28

Results Overview

The Beck Depression inventory scores depression based on 21 items, with a score of 0 - 3 on each item where 0 is no depression and a score of 31 or more is clinically depressed. The 21 items were summed to obtain the total score (The maximum possible score is 63.)

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 - 8 weeks postpartum

Population: Per protocol analysis is reported here.

The Beck Depression inventory scores depression based on 21 items, with a score of 0 - 3 on each item where 0 is no depression and a score of 31 or more is clinically depressed. The 21 items were summed to obtain the total score (The maximum possible score is 63.)

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: visits at 26 - 28 weeks gestational age, 34-36 weeks gestational age during pregnancy and at the post partum visit 6- 8 weeks after delivery

Population: Gestational hypertension and diabetes were self-reported for all participants so her data is included for those two rows. One woman in the soy placebo arm delivered out of the geographic area, so documentation of delivery outcome is unavailable for analysis.

While the maternal outcomes assess criteria during pregnancy and relating to delivery they were assessed at visits 26 - 28 weeks gestational age, 34-36 weeks gestational age and at the post partum visit 6- 8 weeks after delivery.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: delivery date was assessed by medical record review between 1 day and 8 weeks after delivery

Population: Gestational age is measured based on the pregnancy not the neonates, therefore although there were 40 babies born to the 39 mothers randomized to the EPA-rich fish oil, it is proper to consider the participants analyzed to be the 39 participating mothers. This is clarified still further by identifying the units appropriately as pregnancies.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: immediately after birth

Population: Data is provided for all babies on whom delivery weights were available with a set of twins in EPA rich fish oil arm and a delivery elsewhere for whom no birth weight was available for one baby from a mother in the Soy oil placebo arm. Thus there is 1 more participant than mothers participating in the EPA-rich arm and one less in the soy oil arm.

Mean weight in grams: where \<2500 gm is considered small for gestational age and \>4500 gm is considered large for gestational age.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 1 minute after birth

Population: One set of twins from EPA group; Soy oil arm has data for only 40 as one baby was born elsewhere so Apgar data is not available.

Apgar scores are based on a scale of 0 - 10 where 0 is a dead baby and 10 is an optimally vigorous newborn. The Apgar score analyzed here is the one minute Apgar.
