Öğe The association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene G894T polymorphism and serum nitric oxide concentration with microalbuminuria in patients with gestational diabetes(Dustri-Verlag Dr Karl Feistle, 2014) Atay, Ahmet Engin; Akbas, Halit; Tumer, Cemil; Sakar, Mehmet Nafi; Esen, Bennur; Incebiyik, Adnan; Simsek, SeldaAim: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a glucose intolerant condition that affects 14% of all pregnancies. Diabetes mellitus (DM) occurs in 30 - 70% of patients with GDM after delivery. DM and GDM are associated with structural and functional deterioration of the renovascular system. Our aim is to investigate the association Glu-298Asp polymorphism of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene with serum nitric oxide levels and microalbuminuria in patients with GDM and healthy pregnancies. Material and methods: Serum nitric oxide (NO) levels, urinary excretion of albumin and Glu298Asp polymorphism of the eNOS gene were analyzed in 68 patients with GDM and 73 healthy controls. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-Griess) method was used to analyze serum NO levels. Microalbuminuria was evaluated by rate nephelometry method. The Glu298Asp polymorphism of the eNOS gene was determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results: Nitric oxide, glucose, creatinine, and microalbuminuria were significantly different between the patients and the control subjects (p = 0.001, p = 0.001, p = 0.002, and p = 0.005, respectively). There was a significant difference between groups in terms of the ratio of GG/GT+TT of eNOS gene Glu298Asp (p = 0.02). The patients with GT+TT genotype had significantly higher microalbuminuria levels and lower NO concentrations (22.16 vs. 9.51, p = 0.005, and 10.56 vs. 12.73, p = 0.021, respectively). The presence of T allele of eNOS gene is an independent predictor of microalbuminuria (OR: 2.346, 95% confidence interval: 1.247 - 5.238, p = 0.02) as well as serum glucose and NO concentration. Conclusion: The G894T polymorphism of eNOS gene and decreased NO concentration seem to be independent predictors of increased urinary excretion of albumin in patients with GDM. Determining the frequency of eNOS gene G894T polymorphism may help to identify pregnancies at increased risk of microalbuminuria.Öğe Comparison of sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1 levels in maternal serum and vaginal secretion between pregnant women with preterm prelabour ruptures of membranes and healthy pregnant women(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Sak, Sibel; Barut, Mert; Incebiyik, Adnan; Agacayak, Elif; Kirmit, Adnan; Koyuncu, Ismail; Sak, MuhammetObjective: The study aims to evaluate the maternal serum and the vaginal fluid levels of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecular (sICAM-1) in pregnant women complicated by preterm prelabour ruptures of membranes (PPROM). Materials and methods: The prospective case control study included 34 pregnant women with PPROM and 34 healthy pregnant women. Patients with additional diseases, a smoking habit and vaginal bleeding, as well as those using antibiotics, during the study period were not included in the study. Cervicovaginal fluid and serum samples were taken during the patients' admission. The demographic data, maternal serum and vaginal fluid sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1, C reactive protein (CRP) and leukocyte counts were noted for all pregnant women included in the study. The sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. Results: In pregnant women with PPROM, the serum leukocyte (mean +/- SD =11.41 +/- 1.067 versus 9.18 +/- 1.56, p < .0001), serum sVCAM-1 (median 771.20 versus 704.60 ng/ml, p < .001), sICAM-1 (mean +/- SD 213.10 +/- 35.59 ng/ml versus 188.11 +/- 37.35 ng/ml, p = .06), vaginal sVCAM-1 (median 208.00 versus 140.20 ng/ml, p = .014) and sICAM-1 (mean +/- SD 32.32 +/- 6.49 ng/ml versus 24.87 +/- 6.79 ng/ml, p < .001) values were found to be significantly higher in pregnant women with PPROM than in healthy pregnant women. A positive and significant correlation was observed between the leukocyte count and the vaginal sVCAM-1 level (r = 0.850; p < .001). Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study evaluating the levels of sICAM-1 in maternal serum in pregnant women with PPROM. The maternal serum and vaginal fluid sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1 levels can be used as biochemical markers supporting the PPROM diagnosis because of the increase in both maternal serum and vaginal fluid sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1 levels in pregnant women with PPROM.Öğe Copper and ceruloplasmin levels are closely related to the severity of preeclampsia(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Sak, Sibel; Barut, Mert; Celik, Hakim; Incebiyik, Adnan; Agacayak, Elif; Uyanikoglu, Hacer; Kirmit, AdnanObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate the maternal serum concentrations of copper (Cu) and ceruloplasmin (CP) in patients with mild preeclampsia, severe preeclampsia, hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count (HELLP) syndrome, and to determine their association with the severity of the disease. Methods: This study was carried out at the largest tertiary care health center in the southeast region in Turkey and Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dicle University Hospital. A total of 179 pregnant women, including 58 healthy pregnant women and 71 mild preeclampsia, 26 severe preeclampsia, and 24 HELLP syndrome cases classified according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists? 2013 guidelines were included in this prospective study. Blood samples were taken from all the pregnant women to evaluate the serum Cu and CP levels. The Cu level was determined via atomic absorption/emission spectroscopy, while the serum CP level was assessed with a nephelometric assay using an automatic image analyzer. Spearman?s rank correlation tests were used to determine the correlations between the serum levels of the antioxidative markers and the preeclampsia severity. Results: The mean???SD of the Cu was 81.2???11.84 ?g/dl in the mild preeclampsia cases and 160.2???20.89 ?g/dl in the severe preeclampsia cases (p?Öğe Cytogenetic screening in couples with Habitual Abortions(Elsevier Masson, Corporation Office, 2019) Sak, Sibel; Incebiyik, Adnan; Hilali, Nese Gul; Agacayak, Elif; Uyanikoglu, Hacer; Akbas, Halit; Sak, Muhammet ErdalObjective: Habitual abortion (HA) is defined at least three consecutive pregnancy losses. One of the etiologic causes is parental chromosomal anomalies. In this study, we aimed to that investigate the effect of parental chromosomal abnormalities on HA. Methods: The cytogenetic results of patients with at least three abortions referred to our university hospital between January 2010 - March 2017 were evaluated. A total of 1154 couples with HA were analysed. Peripheral lymphocyte cultures incubated for 72 h were used for karyotype analysis via the Giemsa banding technique. Results: Of a total 1154 couples (2308 patients) 37 female (3.2%) and 17 male (1.47%) had abnormal karyotypes. Reciprocal translocation carriage (n = 26; 1.12%) was the most commonly detected structural anomaly, followed by X chromosome mosaicism (n = 16; 0.69%), Robertsoniantransiocation (n = 9; 0.38%), Chromosomal inversion (n = 6; 0.26%). Chromosomal polymorphisms, which are considered minor chromosomal changes, were detected in 221 (9.57%) individuals. Conclusion: Our study exhibits that chromosomal analysis in patient with HA is an appropriate approach to elucidate the aetiology of HA. Data from cytogenetic screening can be used in guiding couples planning future pregnancies and in prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal anomalies in the foetus. (C) 2018 Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.
