Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study evaluates the gallbladder functions and serum cholecystokinin levels in pregnant women diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum. Half of the participants are healthy pregnant women and half of the participants are pregnant women diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum. Two groups will be compared by means of gallbladder functions and serum cholecystokinin levels.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Previously gallbladder functions have been observed in human with gallbladder disease. However it has never been evaluated whether there is any difference in gallbladder functions between healthy pregnant women and pregnant women diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum. Moreover correlation between hyperemesis gravidarum symptom scores and gallbladder functions has never been assessed. There is also few data comparing serum cholecystokinin levels between healthy pregnant women and those diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum. The investigators will measure serum cholecystokinin levels after a fatty meal (100 g chocolate) and compare two groups. In this study the investigators would like to evaluate gallbladder functions and serum cholecystokinin levels in women with hyperemesis gravidarum and compare these with healthy subjects.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Hyperemesis gravidarum

pregnant women before 14 weeks of pregnancy diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum will be assessed in terms of gallbladder functions and serum cholecystokinin levels after a fatty meal.

No interventions assigned to this group

Healthy pregnant women

Healthy pregnant women before 14 weeks of pregnancy without hyperemesis gravidarum will be assessed in terms of gallbladder functions and serum cholecystokinin levels after a fatty meal.
