the identification of early markers of atopy in cord blood of newborns at delivery may offer prediction of future allergic sensitization. the aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between cord blood interleukin-13 (il-13) and interferon-gamma (ifn-γ) and development of allergic diseases during the first five years of life. umbilical cord blood samples were collected at the time of ...

birth is associated with significant changes in the hypothalamic-pituitarythyroid axis and these changes complicate the proper assessment of thyroid function in neonates. normal values fort4 (thyroxine) and tsh (thyroid stimulating hormone) in cord blood are not well established. the present study was carried out on 4000 specimens of cord sera of both sexes in order to establish reliable refere...

Abstract Maternal and cord blood sera were collected from 20 parturients who received the BNT162b2 vaccine. All women infants positive for anti S- anti-receptor binding domain antibody–specific immunoglobulin G. Cord antibody concentrations correlated to maternal levels time since vaccination. Antenatal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccination may provide neonatal protection.

ess the relationship between umbilical cord blood gases at birth and morphology of umbilical cord, in a prospective study of 200 consecutive term delivery, we investigated the relationship between umbilical cord morphology characteristics (umbilical crd length, number of vascular coil, coiling index) and color of amniotic fluid and umbilical vessel blood gases. statistically significant linear ...

objectives: controversial findings exist regarding the association between neonate gender and umbilical cord blood lipid levels. this study aims to compare the levels of lipids and lipoprotein b-100 in the umbilical cord blood of male and female newborns and assess the impact of these factors on neonatal anthropometric measurements. methods: this cross-sectional study was performed on 75 health...
