Development of composite outcomes for individual patient data (IPD) meta‐analysis on the effects of diet and lifestyle in pregnancy: a Delphi survey

Abstract: Objective To develop maternal, fetal, and neonatal composite outcomes relevant to the evaluation of diet and lifestyle interventions in pregnancy by individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis.Design Delphi survey.Setting The International Weight Management in Pregnancy (i-WIP) collaborative network. Sample Twenty-six researchers from the i-WIP collaborative network from 11 countries.Methods A two-generational Delphi survey involving members of the i-WIP collaborative network (26 members in 11 countries) was u… Show more

“…We combined diet based, physical activity based, and mixed approach interventions to provide an overall estimate, and also reported their individual effects 13137. Since more than one clinical outcome is considered to be important to clinical care, we assessed the effects of interventions on maternal and offspring composite outcomes, the individual components of which were identified through a robust Delphi process 24. The varying definitions may have an impact on findings for gestational diabetes and pre-eclampsia, where the cut-offs and the criteria for diagnosis differed.…”

“…The secondary outcomes were individual maternal and offspring complications. The components of the composite outcomes were determined by a two round Delphi survey of researchers in this specialty, and were considered to be critically important to clinical practice 24. The maternal composite outcome included gestational diabetes mellitus, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, preterm delivery, and caesarean section.…”

“…We identified the components of the composite through a robust and transparent Delphi process. 19 The effects of the intervention on the individual components of the composite showed very similar effect sizes, confirming the valid use of the composite. We assessed the risk of bias in studies that contributed IPD and compared this with the risk of bias overall in all published studies.…”

“…The details of the development of the composite outcomes are published elsewhere. 19 We excluded studies published before 1990, animal studies and those that evaluated the effects of intervention only on non-clinical outcomes (behaviour change and consumption of particular food groups) or aimed to increase weight gain in pregnancy. …”
