Study Details

Brief summary:

The objective of the Gestational Diabetes Genetic Socioeconomic Risk Study is to generate genome wide association study data (GWAS) to calculate polygenic risk scores (PRS) for the development of gestational diabetes in pregnant women. Oshun Medical's GWAS study will be conducted by collecting DNA samples alongside medical and socioeconomic data and applying data science methodology to generate a polygenic risk score algorithm for gestational diabetes. Our hypothesis is that key genetic variants linked to gestational diabetes will be identified, and sociodemographic characteristics may impact epigenetic factors which further contribute to this risk of gestational diabetes. The PRS generated through our study will be combined with an analysis of epigenetic factors to produce a new method for predicting risk of developing gestational diabetes during pregnancy.
