Amaç

In the previous studies, homocysteine levels were found to be high in such pregnancy complications as preeclampsia and placental abruption. However, homocysteine levels were not investigated in cases with recurrent pre-term birth history. This study aims at investigating pla.sma homocysteine levels in women with prcvious pre-term birth history.

Yöntem

Thirty non-pregnant women who had similar sociodemographical characteristics were divided into sub-groups according to the number of pre-term birth they previously had (Gl, n=l0, no pre-term birth, G2; n=12, one pre-term birth; G3, n=8, two pre-term 1 births). Plasma homocysteine levels were identified in all cases.

Bulgular

Plasma homocysteine levels were found to be significantly higher in Group 3 cases when compared to cases in Groups 1 and 2 (p < 0.05, Mann Whitney U test).

Sonuç

We suggested that in women with history pre-term birth levels of homocysteine should be considered. Homocysteine levels may use as a beneficial marker to estimate risk of pre-term birth.
