Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationships between maternal and fetal cord serum leptin levels, maternal and fetal anthropometric measurements and placental weight. Design: Prospective clinical research Setting: Adnan Menderes University Hospital, Aydın, Turkey Patients: Thirty-three, healhty, first trimester pregnant women without any obstetric high risk. Interventions: Maternal anthropometric measurements and venous blood samples were collected at the first trimester and at term. Fetal anthropometrics and placental weight were recorded. Main outcome measurements: Leptin, body weight, body mass index (BMI), ponderal index (PI) and fetal sex. RESULTS: Serum leptin levels at term were increased when compared with those at the first trimester. The more BMI at the first trimester, the less total weight gain during gestation. Maternal weight at the first trimester was positively correlated with placental weight only, whereas maternal weight at term was positively correlated with both fetal and placental weight. The higher maternal BMI at term and the higher placental weight. Fetal weight, fetal BMI and PI were significantly and positively correlated with fetal cord leptin and placental weight. The same kind of correlation existed with the placental weight and cord leptin level. Fetal cord leptin and fetal sex was not correlated. CONCLUSIONS: One of the determinants of fetal and placental weight is the maternal weight at term, rather than the total weight gain during the pregnancy. Relatively thin women at the beginning of pregnancy gain more weight than the subjects that are relatively obese at the beginning of pregnancy. So maternal weight at term comes into a balance. Consequently, it seems that an optimal birth weight is achieved. Maternal leptin levels at the first trimester could not predict fetal growth. Fetal cord leptin is effective more than maternal leptin on fetal growth.

Özet

AMAÇ: Maternal ve fetal kord leptin düzeyleri ile maternal ve fetal antropometrik ölçümler ve plasental ağırlık arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek. YÖNTEM: Prospektif klinik çalışma Ortam: Adnan Menderes Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi Hastalar: Obstetrik riski olmayan, 1.trimesterdeki 33 gebe Girişim: 1.trimesterde ve doğumda antropometrik ölçümler ve venöz kan alındı. Fetal antropometrik ve plasental ağırlık ölçümleri yapıldı. Değerlendirme parametreleri: Leptin, ağırlık, vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ), ponderal indeks (Pİ) ve fetal cinsiyet SONUÇ: Leptin düzeyleri, gebeliğin 1.trimesterine kıyasla doğumda, anlamlı arttı. 1.trimesterde VKİ’i fazla olanlar, gebelikte daha az kilo aldı. Birinci trimester maternal ağırlık, sadece plasental ağırlıkla korelasyon gösterirken, sadece doğum sırasındaki maternal ağırlık, hem fetal hem de plasental ağırlıkla korelasyon gösterdi. Doğum sırasındaki maternal VKİ arttıkça, plasental ağırlık da arttı. Fetal ağırlık, fetal VKİ ve Pİ artarken, kord leptin düzeyi ve plasental ağırlık da artış gösterdi. Plasental ağırlık ile kord leptin düzeyi arasında, da anlamlı korelasyon görüldü. Kord leptin düzeyi ile fetal cinsiyet arasında ilişki bulunamadı. YORUM: Fetal ve plasental ağırlığı belirleyen etken gebelik sırasında alınan kilodan ziyade, doğum sırasındaki maternal ağırlıktır. Gebeliğe göreceli zayıf başlayan kadınlar daha çok, görece şişman başlayan kadınlar ise daha az kilo alırlar ve böylece, doğum sırasındaki maternal vücut ağırlığı dengede tutulur. Sonuçta, fetal doğum ağırlığı optimal düzeyde tutuluyor gibi görünmektedir. Birinci trimester leptin düzeyi, fetal büyümeyi öngörmemektedir. Fetal büyümede, maternal leptinden çok, fetal kord leptini etkilidir
