Maternal serum insulin-like growth factor-I.
The recent report on maternal insulin-like growth factor-I is very interesting. Yang et al. concluded that “maternal serum IGF-I is significantly related to GA, maternal BW, and BMI during pregnancy.” In fact, there are some previous reports on this issue. Pathmaperuma et al. made a completely different observation. In their report, it was reported that serum IGF-I “did not correlate with newbo...
متن کاملComparison 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...
متن کاملrelationship between serum umbilical cord and maternal leptin and adiponectin concentrations with fetal growth parameters
background: pregnancy and accelerated fetal growth always are related with major metabolic changes and body fat redistribution and adiponectin is one of principle adipocyte hormones, so studying adiponectin changes during pregnancy may reveal some hidden parts of fetal metabolism. the aim of this study was to assess adiponectin and leptin levels in umbili cal cord and maternal serum, their rela...
متن کاملUmbilical Cord Serum Erythropoietin Levels and Maternal Smoking in Pregnancy
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of maternal smoking during pregnancy on levels of umbilical cord erythropoietin. METHODS Erythropoietin levels were measured in umbilical cord sera of 60 newborns who were delivered vaginally at term. There were 20 (33%) smoking and 40 (67%) nonsmoking mothers. RESULTS Mean cord serum erythropoietin levels were significantly lower in the nonsmokers (nonsmoke...
متن کاملMaternal Serum Levels of Transforming Growth Factor ß1 (TGF-ß1) in Normal and Preeclamptic Pregnancies
Background: Successful pregnancy in allopregnant women depends upon the control of graft rejection mechanisms. It has been suggested that some immunosuppressive cytokines contribute to successful pregnancy and transplantation. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF- β) exhibits potent immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory properties which might prolong graft survival. Recent studies suggest a ...
