Effect of Lifestyle and/or Metformin Intervention on Pregnancy Outcome in Overweight/Obese Non-pcos Infertility Women With Insulin Resistance , A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Abstract
The purpose of pilot trial is to compare the efficacy of lifestyle intervention, metformin intervention, lifestyle combined with metformin intervention in improving assisted reproductive technology in non-polycystic ovary syndrome(pcos) patients with overweight/obesity and insulin resistance compared with conventional clinical education. Subjects who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized to four groups: lifestyle intervention group, metformin intervention group, lifestyle combined with metformin intervention group, and routine clinical education group. Subjects of above three intervention group will start ovulation stimulation treatment after reach the aim or duration of intervention and routine clinical education group has no intervention. All subjects are treated with the same procedures, including a long ovarian stimulation regimen, oocyte retrieval, and fertilization, followed by a planned transfer of two day-3 embryos. The primary outcome is ongoing pregnancy rate.
Conditions: Infertility, Female, Obesity, Insulin Resistance.
Primary outcome: recruitment rate.
Enrollment: 80 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 80 participants or records.
