While subsequent development of type II diabetes elevates this risk, prior GDM is an independent risk factor for CVD morbidity, particularly within the first decade postpartum. GDM is associated with impaired endothelial function during pregnancy and decrements in macro- and microvascular function persist postpartum, despite the remission of insulin resistance following delivery. Collectively, while the association between GDM and elevated lifetime CVD risk is clear, and available evidence demonstrates a link between GDM and vascular dysfunction in the decade following pregnancy, the mechanisms mediating this persistent dysfunction remain unexamined.\n\nThe purpose of this investigation is to examine the role of oxidative stress in mediating vascular dysfunction in women who have had gestational diabetes.\n\nIn this study, the investigators use the blood vessels in the skin as a representative vascular bed for examining mechanisms of microvascular dysfunction in humans. Using a minimally invasive technique (intradermal microdialysis for the local delivery of pharmaceutical agents) they examine the blood vessels in a dime-sized area of the skin in women who have had GDM. As a compliment to these measures, the investigators also collect endothelial cells from an antecubital vein and measure markers of oxidative stress and insulin-mediated eNOS phosphorylation in these cells.",[32,39,44],{"label":33,"type":34,"description":35,"interventionNames":36},"local lactated Ringer's perfusion","PLACEBO_COMPARATOR","lactated Ringer's is perfused through the microdialysis fiber to serve as the vehicle control",[37,38],"Drug: Acetylcholine","Drug: insulin aspart",{"label":40,"type":41,"description":42,"interventionNames":43},"local ascorbate perfusion","EXPERIMENTAL","local ascorbate is perfused through the microdialysis fiber to serve as the antioxidant experimental treatment",[37,38],{"label":45,"type":41,"description":46,"interventionNames":47},"local L-NAME perfusion","local L-NAME is perfused through the microdialysis fiber to inhibit nitric oxide synthase",[37,38],[49,54],{"type":50,"name":51,"description":52,"armGroupLabels":53,"otherNames":23},"DRUG","Acetylcholine","acetylcholine is perfused at 10 ascending concentrations (10\\^-10M - 10\\^-1 M) for 5 minutes each",[45,40,33],{"type":50,"name":55,"description":56,"armGroupLabels":57,"otherNames":23},"insulin aspart","insulin aspart is perfused at 5 ascending concentrations (10\\^-8M - 10\\^-4 M) for 10 minutes each",[45,40,33],[59],{"name":60,"role":61,"phone":62,"phoneExt":23,"email":63},"Anna Reid-Stanhewicz, PHD","CONTACT","319-467-1732","anna-stanhewicz@uiowa.edu",[65],{"facility":5,"status":66,"city":67,"state":68,"zip":69,"country":70,"countryCode":71,"cosmosGeoPoint":72,"geoPoint":77,"contacts":78},"RECRUITING","Iowa City","Iowa","52242","United States","US",{"type":73,"coordinates":74},"Point",[75,76],-91.53017,41.66113,{"lat":76,"lon":75},[79],{"name":80,"role":61,"phone":62,"phoneExt":23,"email":63},"Anna Stanhewicz, PhD",{"type":82,"investigatorFullName":80,"investigatorTitle":83,"investigatorAffiliation":5,"oldNameTitle":23,"oldOrganization":23},"SPONSOR_INVESTIGATOR","Assistant Professor","100512002",false,"NCT05946785","Oxidative Stress in Microvascular Dysfunction Following Gestational Diabetes","Role of Oxidative Stress in Microvascular Dysfunction Following Gestational Diabetes","INCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\n* female sex\n* 18 -50 years old\n* pregnancy history within 5 years of the study visit\n* had gestational diabetes diagnosed by their obstetrician and confirmed according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists criteria for gestational diabetes\n* or without a history of gestational diabetes\n\nEXCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\n* skin diseases\n* current tobacco\u002Fe-cigarette use\n* diagnosed or suspected hepatic or metabolic disease including diabetes\n* statin or other cholesterol-lowering medication\n* current antihypertensive medication\n* history of preeclampsia or gestational hypertension\n* current pregnancy\n* body mass index \\\u003C18.5 kg\u002Fm2\n* allergy to materials used during the experiment.(e.g. latex), known allergies to study drugs.",true,"FEMALE","18 Years","50 Years",{"count":95,"type":96},28,"ESTIMATED","INTERVENTIONAL",[99],"EARLY_PHASE1","The purpose of this investigation is to examine the role of oxidative stress in aberrant microvascular function in otherwise healthy women with a history of GDM.",[102,103],"Gestational Diabetes","Vascular Endothelial Function",[105,106,107],"gestational diabetes","postpartum","vascular","2025-05-07",{"date":110,"type":111},"2025-05-13","ACTUAL",{"date":113,"type":111},"2023-07-01",{"date":115,"type":96},"2027-06-01",{"name":80,"class":6},1]
