Abstract

Background: One of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the modern period is coronary heart disease. The fetal origin concept has shown that the origins of this epidemic can be found as early as fetal life. A few research have compared the lipid profiles of cord blood from pre-term and term newborns, opening the door to early chronic disease prevention.

Aim: The aim of the study was to compare lipid parameters in pre-term and term maternal serum and neonatal cord blood.

Methods: In 300 newborns cord blood and 300 maternal serum samples, a cross-sectional research was performed. The placental side of the umbilical cord was used to collect cord blood samples, which were then examined for their lipid profiles, which included measurements of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), and apolipoproteins including ApoA and ApoB.

Results: When lipid parameters from maternal serum and neonatal cord blood were compared, maternal serum had statistically significant higher values for the apolipoproteins, atherogenic index (AI), and lipid profile. Lipid parameters (TC, TG, LDL, very low density lipoprotein, Apolipoprotein B, and AI) were higher in mothers of pre-term babies and also in cord blood of pre-term neonates. Comparison of lipid parameters of pre-term and term mothers and neonatal cord blood was highly significant.

Conclusion: There was a significant association of cord blood and maternal lipid parameters; hence, change in maternal lipid levels might influences the lipid levels in the cord blood of neonates.
