Brief Summary

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

This study is a randomized controlled trial which compares the effect of vitamin D3 therapy 5,000 IU daily and 50,000 IU on 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D maternal serum levels in pregnant women with vitamin D deficient and insufficient.

Detailed Description

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

This is a randomized controlled trial of vitamin D therapy of 5,000 IU daily or 50,000 IU weekly during pregnancy. The study is conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo National Center General Hospital and Koja Distict Hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia from April 2021 - December 2023. All the pregnant women are screened for eligibility when they presented to the clinic for antenatal care visits and are offered enrolment if they meet the following inclusion criteria: gestational age of ≤ 14 weeks, vitamin D deficient or insufficient (25(OH)D \<30 ng/ml\], and positive fetal heart rate from ultrasound examination.

Participants are randomly assigned to one of two parallel intervention groups, with allocation concealment: vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) 5,000 IU/week or 50,000 IU/week. All participants are given a standard prenatal multivitamin. A medical history, physical, and ultrasound examination are performed. Participants complete a questionnaire about sunlight exposure. Interventions in both groups are given for four weeks. Baseline blood tests, including serum 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D are performed at recruitment. After four weeks of interventions, the maternal venous blood is collected to assess serum 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D.
