Some mineral, trace element and heavy metal concentrations in newborns with esophageal atresia and their mothers

Öz

Objective: The aim was to reveal some minerals, trace elements and heavy metal levels in newborns with esophageal atresia (EA) and their mothers and determine whether there is a relationship between these values and this disease. Material and Methods: The study included a total of 60 subjects (15 newborns with EA, 15 healthy newborns and their mothers). Blood samples of each subject were obtained. Serum concentrations of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and iron (Fe) were determined. Results: Serum Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, Cu levels were significantly higher in newborns with EA compared to healthy newborns (p
