Özet

Objective: To evaluate the association between maternal plasma thrombomodulin levels and infant birth weights in pregnancy-induced hypertension. Study design: Plasma thrombomodulin levels were measured in 80 pregnat women living in the Trakya region of Turkey. Kruskal-Wallis statistical analysis was performed in comparison of the descriptive and laboratory data (significance at P<.05). Results: The plasma thrombomodulin values in hypertensive disorders in pregnancy were found to be highly correlated with the infant birth weights(P<.001). Conclusion: Elevated plasma thrombomodulin levels in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were well correlated withh related infant birth weights of these pathhologies. Plasma thrombomodulin levels might point out placental vascular endothelial damage reflecting on infant birth weights.
