Does dietary total antioxidant capacity relate to oxidative stress levels in water immersion during labor? A case-control study

Revista da Associação Médica Brasileira (2024)

Tuğba Küçükkasap Cömert Seval Yılmaz Ergani Meltem UĞURLU Funda Akpınar

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of water immersion during the first stage of labor on maternal and neonatal oxidative stress and the association between serum and dietary total antioxidant capacity. METHODS: Women were divided into two groups: those immersed in water during the first stage of labor (n=30) and those who had conventional birth (n=33). Total oxidative stress and total antioxidant status levels were examined in antepartum and postpartum maternal serum and neonatal cord blood samples. Dietary total antioxidant capacity was determined by the food frequency questionnaire. RESULTS: Vitamin C and dietary total antioxidant capacity consumption were found to be higher in the water immersion group (106.92 mg/day and 18.94 mmol/gün, respectively) than the conventional birth group (92.69 mg/day and 15.99 mmol/gün, respectively) (p<0.05). Women immersed in water during the first stage of labor had lower total oxidative stress levels in antepartum and postpartum maternal serum and neonatal cord blood samples than those who had conventional birth (5.43±2.42 mmol/L and 5.59±3.35 mmol/L vs. 8.58±5.53 mmol/L and 12.68±16.58 mmol/L; p<0.05). Dietary total antioxidant capacity was found to be negatively correlated with total oxidative stress levels in antepartum and postpartum maternal serum and neonatal cord blood samples (p=0.012, p=0.047, p=0.035, and p<0.05). CONCLUSION: Women immersed in water during the first stage of labor had lower total oxidative stress levels in their postnatal maternal serum and neonatal cord blood samples and dietary total antioxidant capacity was also a factor associated with low total oxidative stress levels.

Is restrained eating behaviour associated with pre-pregnancy weight and weight-gain in gestational diabetes?

Journal of Health Sciences and Medicine (2023)

Tuğba Küçükkasap Cömert Elif YILDIZ Funda Akpınar Cantekin İskender

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between eating behaviors and pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and body weight gain in individuals with gestational diabetes mellitus. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 34 pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus and 50 nondiabetic women above the 28th week of pregnancy. The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire was used to assess eating habits. A quantitative food frequency questionnaire was used to assess food consumption. Results: Individuals with gestational diabetes had significantly higher levels of restrained eating behavior scores (27.11±5.98 vs 20.32±6.84) compared to nondiabetic women (p

Investigate the relationship between the microbiota awareness in first trimester and high risk pregnancy in Turkish women: cross-sectional study

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2023)

Tuğba Küçükkasap Cömert Sinan Karadeniz Funda Akpınar

It is suggested that pregnancy risks may be related to microbial dysbiosis, and it is known that knowledge on this subject is reflected in behaviors. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether microbiota awareness in the first trimester of pregnancy is associated with pregnancy-related risks.Within the scope of the study, the microbiota awareness scale was administered to 426 individuals in the first trimester of pregnancy, and information on any diagnosis related to high-risk pregnancy, gestational age, birth weight, and birth height of the newborn was obtained from their file records.The mean total microbiota awareness score of individuals was 61.38 ± 11.00 (26.00-91.00). The microbiota awareness score (56.85 ± 11.65) was found to be lower in individuals diagnosed with high-risk pregnancy (p < 0.05) than in healthy subjects (63.64 ± 9.94). Moreover, in individuals with high-risk pregnancies, a positive correlation was found between the microbiota awareness score and newborn birth weight and height (p < 0.05).The poor microbiota awareness level in pregnant women is associated with high-risk pregnancy and neonatal growth status.

Is Meconium Stained Amniotic Fluid Related to Cord Blood Vitamin D Levels

Saynur Yılmaz Funda Akpınar Ayla Aktulay Özlem Gün Eryılmaz Zehra Kamışlı Öztürk

Aim: The present study aimed to compare cord blood Vitamin D levels of infants born with meconium stained amniotic fluid to those with clear amniotic fluid. Method: Term pregnant women in the active phase of labor and having meconium stained amniotic fluid were defined as the study group (n=44). Women with healthy uncomplicated pregnancies with clear amniotic fluid matched with the study group for age, parity and gestational age were defined as the control group. Demographic, delivery and laboratory parameters of both groups were recorded. Cord blood vitamin D levels were measured with high performance liquid chromatography. Results: The 88 women were between the ages of 18-40 years. There were 16 patients with massive meconium, and 28 patients with mild and moderate meconium. Mean vitamin D levels of the study and control groups were 45.1 and 41.0 ng/ml, respectively. In our study sample, 14% of the study group and 23% of the control group had deficient levels of vitamin D (≤20 ng/ml 25(OH)D). Vitamin D levels did not correlate with the presence of meconium or the thickness of the meconium. Conclusion: The present study indicates that blood levels of vitamin D of infants born through meconium stained amniotic fluid were not significantly different from those with clear amniotic fluid. Larger studies are needed to define the exact role of vitamin D in pregnancy and to investigate the effect of additional Vitamin D intake on pregnancy outcomes. Key words: Meconium, cord blood, vitamin D, low risk pregnancies.

The Effect of B - Lynch Compression Suture on Fertility Potential

Gynecology Obstetrics and Reproductive Medicine (2012)

Funda Akpınar Seda Güvendağ Güven İşık Üstüner

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the potential complications like intrauterine synechia and tubal occlusion following B- lynch suture which was used to control the postpartum hemorrhage. STUDY DESIGN: Between December 2010 and December 2011 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Rize Education and Reseach Hospital, 8 patients underwent B lynch suture for postpartum hemorrhage that was intractable to medical treatment and needed blood transfusion. These patients were called at 3. month of postpartum period. Uterine cavity and tubal patency was evaluated with hysterosalpingography and hysteroscopy. RESULTS: Early postpartum hemorrhage was controlled with B- lynch suture in all patients. In hysterosalpingographic and hysteroscopic inspection; uterine cavities were normal with bilateral tubal free passages in all patients. CONCLUSION: B- lynch suture was found to be an effective fertility preserving alternative to emergency postpartum hysterectomy in reproductive age women.
