MTHFR (C677T) polymorphism and PR (PROGINS) mutation as genetic factors for preterm delivery, fetal death and low birth weight: A Northeast Indian population based study
UNLABELLED Preterm delivery (PTD) is one of the most significant contributors to neonatal mortality, morbidity, and long-term adverse consequences for health; with highest prevalence reported from India. The incidence of PTD is alarmingly very high in Northeast India. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the associative role of MTHFR gene polymorphism and progesterone receptor (PR)...
متن کاملMaternal Periodontal Disease as a Potential Risk Factor for Preterm Birth and Low Birth Weight
Background and Aim: Periodontal disease may cause adverse pregnancy outcomes such as low birth weight (LBW) or preterm birth (PTB). In the present study, mothers with one of these two delivery complications were analyzed regarding presence/absence of periodontal disease as a possible risk factor in comparison with related medical risk factors. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectiona...
متن کاملFactors associated with preterm delivery and low birth weight: a
Although preterm delivery and low birth weight (LBW) have been Background: studied in India, findings may not be generalisable to rural areas such as the Marathwada region of Maharashtra state. There is limited information available on maternal and child health indicators from this region. We aimed to present some local estimates of preterm delivery and LBW in the Osmanabad district of Marathwa...
متن کاملDoes MTHFR C677T polymorphism predispose asthma? A North Indian study
Background: Involvement of impaired folate metabolism has been hypothesized to be a potential risk factor for the predisposition of asthma. The reports are conflicting on the potential association between atopic disease and polymorphism of the methylene-tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR)-gene. Objective: We designed the study to investigate the association of C677T polymorphism of the MTHFR gen...
متن کاملRisk Factors of Low Birth Weight Infants: A Population-Based Cross-Sectional Study
Background: Complications caused by low birth weight (LBW) are among the most common causes of neonatal mortality and future problems during adulthood. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for LBW. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Mashhad University of Medical Sciences from 2017 to 2018 on 7,382...
