lipid profile of cord blood in term newborns

چکیده
conclusions we found a relatively high value of tc and tg in our study. considering the relationship between high levels of lipids in the neonatal period and coronary artery disease in the adult population, we recommend future cohort studies for this statistical society. results of the 174 neonates, 97 were female. vaginal delivery was recorded in 79.8%. there were no significant differences regarding demographic findings between male and female neonates. the mean values of tc, ldl-c, hdl-c and tg were 73.1 ± 26.5, 28.7 ± 11.1, 27.6 ± 10, and 81.4 ± 37.1mg/dl respectively, with no difference between the two sexes. patients and methods this cross-sectional study was conducted on healthy term neonates born from healthy mothers between august and october 2009 in zanjan, iran. ten milliliters of cord blood was collected from the placental end of umbilical vein immediately after the cord clamping. total cholesterol (tc) and triglyceride (tg) were measured by enzymatic god-pap method with pars azmoon kits. high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (hdl-c) was measured after precipitation of apo lipoproteins with phosphotungstic acid (pta). low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (ldl-c) was calculated by friedewald’s formula. statistical analysis was performed by the spss statistical package version 16.0 for windows. background hyperlipidemia is an important risk factor for coronary artery disease. detection of lipid profile in umbilical cord blood of term newborns could identify neonates with a higher risk of coronary artery disease. objectives the aim of the present study was to improve the existing information about cord blood lipid profile of iranian term newborns.

Introduction: The fetus needs a considerable amount of cholesterol for the development of tissues and organs. Studies have suggested that genetic and environmental factors influence the composition of cord blood lipoproteins. In this study, we aim to assess the effect of gestational age, sex and birth weight on the cord blood lipoproteins. Methods: We collected umbilical cord blood samples fr...

Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of death in Brazil. Recent studies have shown that low birth weight and preterm birth are linked to a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease. The aim of the present study was to compare the levels of lipids and apolipoproteins and atherogenic indexes between term and near-term newborn infants. A sample of umbilical cord blood was obtained from 13...
