    Prediction of spontaneous preterm delivery in women with preterm labor: Analysis of interleukin-17, migration inhibitory factor, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 in maternal serum and cervicovaginal fluid
    (Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2012) Karaer, Abdullah; Celik, Onder; Dogan, Cagdas; Ozerol, Ibrahim Halil; Simsek, Omer Yavuz; Celik, Ebru; Ozerol, Elif
    Background: To analyze whether, interleukin (IL)-17, migration inhibitory factor (MIF), monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 in maternal serum and cervicovaginal fluid, can identify women in preterm labor with intact membranes who will deliver spontaneously within 7 days of sampling. Material and Methods: Forty-four (44) singleton pregnancies between 26-34 weeks of gestation that had threatened preterm labor, enrolled from October 2010 and October 2011. Cervical length was evaluated with transvaginal ultrasonography. Serum and cervicovaginal fluid IL-17, MIF, and MCP-1 were measured with the use of enzyme linked immune assay. Subjects were followed up for premature delivery within 7 days. Results: Seventeen of 44 patients (39%) had preterm delivery and 15 of 44 (34%) delivered within 7 day from admission. The only significant predictor for establishment of preterm delivery within 7 days was cervical length. The median cervical length was 18 mm (range: 5-27) in women who delivered in 7 days and 27 mm (range: 9-44) in women who delivered beyond 7 days of presentation (p-0.001). There was no association between serum and cervicovaginal fluid IL-17, MIF and MCP-1 levels and preterm delivery within 7 days. Conclusions: Cervical length could serve as a predictive factor for the progress of threatened preterm labor to true preterm labor. Serum and cervicovaginal fluid IL-17, MIF and MCP-1 can not be used to differentiate true preterm labor.

    Serum levels of apelin, salusin-alpha and salusin-beta in normal pregnancy and preeclampsia
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012) Simsek, Yavuz; Celik, Onder; Yilmaz, Ercan; Karaer, Abdullah; Dogan, Cagdas; Aydin, Suleyman; Ozer, Ali
    Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the serum apelin, salusin-alpha and salusin-beta levels and preeclampsia. Method: Twenty-one healthy pregnant women (control group) and 48 patients with preeclampsia (study group) were included in the study between August 2010 and February 2011. Serum apelin, salusin-alpha and salusin-beta levels of the groups were compared. Results: The patients in the study group were divided into two categories: mild preeclampsia and severe preeclampsia. The mild preeclampsia group consisted of 31 patients, and the severe preeclampsia group consisted of 17 patients. Serum salusin-alpha and salusin-beta levels of the control and study groups were not significantly different (p > 0.05). Apelin levels were statistically significantly higher in the study group. No statistically significant difference was detected between the mild and severe preeclampsia groups in terms of the mean serum apelin levels. Conclusion: The serum levels of apelin were higher in the pregnant women with preeclampsia; however, there was no positive relationship between serum salusin-alpha and salusin-beta levels and the disease. Larger prospective studies are needed to validate our findings.
