CHARACTER OF ELEMENT STATUS IN EXPECTANT MOTHERS WITH FETUS SOMATOMEGALY

Abstract

Element composition of hair of 102 expectant mothers, gave birth to a term 38-40 weeks has been studied. The main group included 52 women with fetus somatomegaly - (weight of a newborn is 4000 g and more), middle age - 29,6+8,4 The control group included 50 women with fetus normosomiya (weight of a newborn is from 2800 to 3999g ), middle age - 26,9+9,1 years. Bio-elements content, participating in carbohydrate and lipids metabolism namely Mg, Cr and Zn has been measured in the hair of expectant mothers using methods АЭС-PIC, МС-PIC. Statistically lower indices of Mg (p = 0,005) Cr (p = 0,010) and Zn (p = 0,004) concentration have been detected in expectant mothers with fetus somatomegaly in comparison with expectant mothers with fetus normosomiya. The expectant mothers with fetus somatomegaly more often had deviation from the physiologically optimal values of Mg, Cr and Zn concentration and deficiency of different degree of intensity as compared to the control group. Consequently, imbalance of macro and microelements of the organism can serve as one of starting mechanisms of pathological disorders, responsible for metabolic imbalance and diseases associated with it, in particular fetus somatomegaly in expectant mothers. Timely correction of macro and microelements imbalance can be considered as one of preventive variants of big fetation and along with other well-known methods of body weight optimization of expectant mothers become a preventive method of obstetric pathology development in mother and diseases associated with surplus body weight in a child.
