Fetal cinsiyet sağlıklı gebelerde serum plasental alkalen fosfataz seviyelerini etkileyebilir mi?

Öz

Amaç: Normal term gebeliklerde fetal cinsiyetin maternal plasental alkalen fosfataz (ALP) seviyesine etkisinin araştırılması amaçlandı. Yöntem ve Gereçler: Termde olan 88 sağlıklı gebede serum plasental ALP ölçümü yapıldı. Bebeklerin cinsiyeti çalışmaya alınan tüm kadınların doğumları sırasında belirlendi. Plasental ALP seviyeleri kız ve erkek doğuran gebe kadınlar arasında karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Kız fetüse sahip gebelerde plasental ALP düzeyleri daha yüksek olmakla birlikte bu farklılık istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değildi (p > 0.05). Sonuç: 38 - 39’uncu gebelik haftalarında fetal cinsiyetin maternal serum plasental ALP seviyelerini sağlıklı gebe kadınlarda etkilemediği görüldü.

Could fetal gender affect maternal serum placental alkaline phosphatase levels in healthy pregnant women?

Öz

Aim: We aimed to research whether fetal gender affects maternal placental alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels in uncomplicated pregnancies with late term. Materials and Methods: The serum placental ALP measurement was carried out in 88 healthy pregnant women at 38 - 39 weeks of gestation. Infant sex was determined at the delivery for all women included in this study. Placental ALP levels were compared between pregnant women bearing female and male fetuses. Results: Although placental ALP levels were slightly higher in pregnant women carrying female fetuses than in male bearing pregnant women, this difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Fetal gender was seen not to affect maternal serum placental ALP levels in healthy pregnant women at 38 - 39 weeks of gestation. :
