No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In Jordan, there are few data about the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in pregnant women and their newborns and factors that affect their levels. Hence, in this study, investigators will :

1. Determine vitamin D levels among newborns born in north Jordan
2. Determine vitamin D levels among pregnant women in north Jordan
3. Study the association between maternal and infants levels of vitamin D
4. Explore the association between maternal and fetal characteristics and maternal and/or fetal vitamin D level
5. Study the effect of low fetal vitamin D on newborn anthropometry
6. Study the effect of maternal vitamin D supplement use during pregnancy in raising cord serum vitamin D levels

Conditions

  • Vitamin D Deficiency

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Measuring vitamin D serum level using ELIZA

Venous blood will be obtained from pregnant women at the time of admission and from the umbilical cord veins of the newborns immediately after their delivery. The quantitative measurement of 25OHD in serum will be performed using ELIZA.
