Umbilical Cord Blood Changes in Neonates from a Preeclamptic Pregnancy
نویسندگان
چکیده
During pregnancy, mother's well-being affects directly the newborn development. Some maternal and placental complications, such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia (PE), preterm delivery and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), may contribute to fetal growth deviations or fetal development modifications. Usually the newborn weight correlates positively with placenta weight, showing the interaction between the development of placenta and fetal growth.

Decreased level of cord blood circulating endothelial colony-forming cells in preeclampsia.
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related disorder associated with increased cardiovascular risk for the offspring. Endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) are a subset of circulating endothelial progenitor cells that participate in the formation of vasculature during development. However, the effect of preeclampsia on fetal levels of ECFCs is largely unknown. In this study, we sought to determine w...
متن کاملInvestigating the Association of Cord Blood Resistin and Birth Weight in Term and Preterm Neonates
BackgroundResistin is reported as an antagonistic hormone of insulin and in the literature. Nowadays, importance of resistin is being more highlighted in the metabolism of mother and fetus during pregnancy. This study aimed to assess the level of resistin in the umbilical cord and blood sugar at birth and evaluate the association of resistin and neonatal birth weight.Materials and MethodsThis c...

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...

Background: The timing of umbilical cord clamping may affect the need to bloodtransfusion and other morbidities of preterm infants. This study aimed to compare three different cord clamping timing (immediate cord clamping, delayed cord clamping and umbilical cord milking) in preterm infants delivered by cesarean section (CS). <em...
متن کاملRatio of middle cerebral to umbilical artery blood velocity in preeclamptic & hypertensive women in the prediction of poor perinatal outcome.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Doppler velocimetry studies of placental and foetal circulation can provide important information regarding foetal well-being providing an opportunity to improve foetal outcome. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the role of middle cerebral to umbilical artery blood velocity waveform's systolic/diastolic ratio (MCA/UA) and biophysical profile as a predictor of ...
