    Prediction of preterm delivery in threatened preterm labour with short cervical length
    (Taylor and Francis, 2022) Hamzaoğlu, Kübra; Davutoğlu Alıcı, Ebru; Bulut, Huri; Madazlı, Rıza
    In this study, we evaluated the value of the uterocervical angle (UCA), myometrial thickness (MT), sICAM-1, sVCAM-1, soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) and pentraxin 3 (PTX3) levels in women with threatened preterm labour (TPL) in predicting spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) within 14 days in symptomatic women with cervical length (CL) measurements between 10 and 25 mm. Forty-six patients diagnosed with TPL, 47 healthy pregnant women were evaluated in a case-control study. sE-selectin (AUC = 0.744, p = .007) and PTX3 (AUC = 0.711, p = .019) were found to be effective in predicting preterm delivery within 14 days. In conclusion, maternal sE-selectin and PTX3 levels may be helpful in identifying pregnancies that will deliver within 14 days in symptomatic women with CL measurements between 10 and 25 mm. However, maternal sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 levels, MT and UCA are not effective in the prediction of sPTB in TPL pregnancies. Impact StatementWhat is already known on this subject? Aetiology of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is unclear and believed to be multifactorial, infection, inflammation, vascular endothelial dysfunction and uteroplacental ischaemia are all considered to be related to preterm delivery syndrome. Transvaginal cervical length (CL) measurement is a good indicator of increased risk of sPTB. Inflammation is accepted to have a central role in the process of labour.What do the results of this study add? soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) and pentraxin 3 (PTX3) levels may be helpful in identifying pregnancies that will deliver within 14 days in symptomatic women with CL measurements between 10 and 25 mm.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? This study will help understand the important role of the inflammatory process in predicting spontaneous preterm birth.

    Serum catestatin level is increased in women with preeclampsia
    (Taylor And Francis, 2021) Tüten, Nevin; Güralp, Onur; Hamzaoğlu, Kübra; Öner, Yahya Özgün; Makul, Melike; Bulut, Huri; Irmak Kübra; Tüten, Abdullah; Malik, Eduard
    Catestatin can inhibit catecholamine release from chromaffin cells and adrenergic neurons. Catestatin can also have a strong vasodilator effect. This may be useful in understanding the pathophysiology of preeclampsia and its treatment. In this study, we investigated the serum catestatin levels in pregnant women with and without preeclampsia. Fifty consecutive women with mild preeclampsia, 50 consecutive women with severe preeclampsia, and 100 consecutive pregnant women with a gestational age-matched (±1 week) uncomplicated pregnancy were evaluated in a cross-sectional study. Mean serum catestatin was significantly increased in the preeclampsia group compared to the control group (290.7 ± 95.5 pg/mL vs. 182.8 ± 72.0 pg/mL). Mean serum catestatin was comparable in mild and severe preeclampsia groups (282.7 ± 97.9 pg/mL vs. 298.7 ± 93.4 pg/mL, p = .431). Serum catestatin levels had positive correlations with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, urea, uric acid, and creatinine. In conclusion, serum catestatin levels are increased in preeclamptic pregnancies compared to gestational age-matched controls.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject? The role of autonomic nervous system dysregulation in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia is known. The most obvious part of this dysregulation is the sympathetic nervous system activation. The adrenal medulla is one of the locations of the sympathetic nervous system in the body.What do the results of this study add? Serum catestatin levels were found to be correlated with clinical and laboratory data of preeclampsia. This highlights the importance of chromaffin cell secretions in the adrenal medulla in preeclampsia.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? This study will help understand the role of the adrenal medulla in the autonomic nervous system dysregulation in preeclampsia. Also, control of serum catestatin levels may support the treatment of hypertension in preeclampsia.

    Serum kallistatin level is decreased in women with preeclampsia
    (2021) Güralp, Onur; Tüten, Nevin; Gök, Koray; Hamzaoğlu, Kübra; Bulut, Huri; Schild-Suhren, Meike; Malik, Eduard; Tüten, Abdullah
    Objective To evaluate the serum levels of the serine proteinase inhibitor kallistatin in women with preeclampsia (PE). Methods The clinical and laboratory parameters of 55 consecutive women with early-onset PE (EOPE) and 55 consecutive women with late-onset PE (LOPE) were compared with 110 consecutive gestational age (GA)-matched (±1 week) pregnant women with an uncomplicated pregnancy and an appropriate for gestational age fetus. Results Mean serum kallistatin was significantly lower in women with PE compared to the GA-matched-controls (27.74±8.29 ng/mL vs. 37.86±20.64 ng/mL, p<0.001); in women with EOPE compared to that of women in the control group GA-matched for EOPE (24.85±6.65 ng/mL vs. 33.37±17.46 ng/mL, p=0.002); and in women with LOPE compared to that of women in the control group GA-matched for LOPE (30.87±8.81 ng/mL vs. 42.25±22.67 ng/mL, p=0.002). Mean serum kallistatin was significantly lower in women with EOPE compared to LOPE (24.85±6.65 ng/mL vs. 30.87±8.81 ng/mL, p<0.001). Serum kallistatin had negative correlations with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, creatinine, and positive correlation with GA at sampling and GA at birth. Conclusions Serum kallistatin levels are decreased in preeclamptic pregnancies compared to the GA-matched-controls. This decrease was also significant in women with EOPE compared to LOPE. Serum kallistatin had negative correlation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, creatinine and positive correlation with GA at sampling and GA at birth.

    Serum neprilysin levels are elevated in preeclampsia
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Tüten, Nevin; Malik, Eduard; Gök, Koray; Hamzaoğlu, Kübra; Makul, Melike; Öner, Yahya Özgün; Bulut, Huri; Tüten, Abdullah; Güralp, Onur Şahin
    Objective: To evaluate the possible associations between serum Neprilysin (NEP) levels and preeclampsia and mild and severe preeclampsia subgroups. Materials and methods: Fifty-five consecutive women with mild preeclampsia and fifty-five consecutive women with severe preeclampsia were compared with 110 approximately gestational age-matched (±1 week) women with an uncomplicated pregnancy. Results: Mean serum NEP was significantly higher in women with preeclampsia compared to that of the gestational age-matched-controls (231.62 ± 65.30 pg/mL vs. 187.75 ± 84.38 pg/mL, p < 0.001). Mean serum NEP was significantly higher in the mild preeclampsia group compared to its gestational age-matched control group (228.84 ± 67.26 pg/mL vs. 186.14 ± 85.09 pg/mL, p = 0.008); and in the severe preeclampsia group compared to its gestational age-matched control group (234.45 ± 63.85 pg/mL vs. 189.29 ± 84.59 pg/mL, p = 0.004). Serum NEP was positively correlated with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, BUN, uric acid, and creatinine. Conclusion: Mean serum NEP was significantly higher in women with preeclampsia than women with an uncomplicated pregnancy. Further studies are needed to elucidate the possible therapeutic role of NEP inhibitors to treat preeclampsia.
