Changes in blood coagulation.

Comparison of Maternal Serum and Umbilical Cord Blood Leptin Level in IUGR Neonates

Background: Gestational weight gain is an impressive factor in the fetal outcome. Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is one of the most important problems during fetal period that may lead to many perinatal and long-term complications and growing neonatal morbidities and mortalities. The aim of the study was to ascertain the relationship between umbilical cord blood leptin concentration and...

Correlation between Lead in Maternal Blood, Umbilical Cord Blood, and Breast Milk with Newborn Anthro-pometric Characteristics

Background: Breast milk can be a source of toxic material, along with the transfer of nutrients needed for infant growth. This study was conducted to measure the level of lead in maternal and neonatal blood and breast milk in Tehran, Iran.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 150 mothers and their infants were studied. Samples of maternal blood, fetal umbilical cord blood, breast milk, ...

EVect of maternal anticonvulsant treatment on neonatal blood coagulation

Aims—To investigate the impact of maternal anticonvulsant use on the ability of cord blood to coagulate. Methods—Cord blood prothrombin times were measured, over 15 years in a consecutive series of 137 term babies born to women taking phenobarbitone, phenytoin, and/or carbamazepine while pregnant. The response to parenteral vitamin K was measured in 83 neonates. Results—Only 14 of the 105 babie...
