چکیده

The immediate and short term outcomes of term newborns with perinatal asphyxia were studied in relation to the nucleated red blood cell count at admission. The mean (SD) NRBC/100WBC (white blood cells) was significantly higher in sequelae group than normal [9.8 (98.9) vs. 2.9 (43); P=0.001].

Early diagnosis of perinatal asphyxia by nucleated red blood cell count: a case-control study.

BACKGROUND Perinatal asphyxia is a major cause of neurologic morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to investigate variations in nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) count per 100 white blood cells (WBC) and absolute NRBC/mm3 in blood associated with perinatal asphyxia and its relationship to both the severity and short term prognosis of asphyxia. METHODS A prospective (case-contro...

Association between serum interleukin-1β levels and perinatal asphyxia

Objective: Asphyxia  is  a  major  cause  of  acute  mortality  and  chronic  neurologic  disability  in  neonates. We sought to  define  the  predictive  values  of  serum  concentrations  of  interleukin-1β  in  newborns  with perinatal asphyxia to see if there is a relation between interleukin-1β (IL-1β) levels to the short term neurological deficit.  Methods: This was a prospective (case-co...

Predictive Value of Biochemical and Hematological Markers in Prognosis of Asphyxic Infants

Background: Asphyxia is one of the main causes of infant mortality and long-term neurologic complications. This cohort study was aimed to compare the diagnostic value of the hematologic and biochemical factors in prediction of prognosis of asphyxia according to the high prevalence of asphyxia and its complications. Methods: In this cohort with two-year follow up study with availability samplin...

Comparison of nucleated red blood cells in the umbilical cord of term neonates in healthy women and women with preeclampsia

BACKGROUND Asphyxia is a common cause of perinatal mortality in 5-10% of all births worldwide. The present parameters for determining perinatal asphyxia, e.g. preeclampsia, cannot be considered as markers per se, and require auxiliary markers, e.g. increased number of nucleated red blood (NRBC) cells, for early diagnosis of perinatal asphyxia. OBJECTIVE In this study, we evaluated the mean NR...
