İntrahepatik gebelik kolestazı olan hastalarda safra asidi düzeyleri ile olumsuz gebelik sonuçları arasındaki ilişki: 120 vakanın retrospektif analizi

Amaç: Literatürde birçok çalışmada intrahepatik gebelik kolestazı (İGK) tanılı kadınlarda serum açlık safra asidi (ASA) düzeylerinin 40 umol/L üzerinde iken olumsuz perinatal sonuçları öngörmede daha iyi olduğu gösterilmiştir. Çalışmamızda, İGK tanısı alan hastalarda, serum ASA düzeylerine göre (10-40 ve >40 mmol/L) oluşturulan gruplar arasında hastalık şiddeti ile olumsuz perinatal sonuçlar arasındaki ilişkiyi ölçmeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntemler: 1 Eylül 2019 - 31 Aralık 2020 tarihleri arasında hastanemizde yapılan bu retrospektif çalışmaya İGK tanısı alan 120 hasta dahil edildi. Obstetrik sonuçlar, maternal ve fetal komplikasyonlar analiz edildi. Bulgular: Serum ASA düzeyleri 10-40 umol/L aralığında olan 88 olgu ile 40 umol/L’nin üzerinde olan 32 olgu karşılaştırıldı. Maternal ve fetal komplikasyon oranları, açlık safra asidi düzeyi >40 umol/L olan grupta anlamlı olarak artmış saptandı (p40 umol/L olan grupta 1. dk ve 5.dk Apgar skorları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı oranda düşük saptanmış olup, yenidoğan yoğun bakım (YDYB) ihtiyacı da anlamlı olarak artmış bulundu (p 40 umol/L olan İGK tanılı olgularda preterm doğum, mekonyumlu amniyon, neonatal respiratuar distres sendromu (RDS), YDYB ihtiyacı ve neonatal ölümü içeren gebelik olumsuz sonuçları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksek saptandı. Özellikle olumsuz gebelik sonuçlarının belirli ASA değerlerinin üzerinde anlamlı olarak yükselmesi, klinisyenleri İGK ile komplike olan gebeliklerin yönetiminde daha iyi klinik sonuçlar elde etmek açısından yönlendirebilir.

The relationship between bile acid levels and adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with intrahepatic pregnancy cholestasis: a retrospective analysis of 120 cases

Aim: It has been shown that fasting serum bile acid (SBA) levels above 40 µmol/L are better in predicting adverse perinatal outcomes in women with a diagnosis of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) in many studies in the literature. We aimed to measure the relationship between disease severity and adverse perinatal outcomes between groups according to serum SBA levels (10-40 and >40 mmol/L) in patients diagnosed with ICP in our study. Materials and Method: 120 patients diagnosed with ICP were included in this retrospective study conducted in our hospital between September 1, 2019 and December 31, 2020. Obstetric outcomes, maternal and fetal complications were analyzed. Results: 88 cases with fasting SBA levels in the range of 10-40 umol/L and 32 cases with fasting SBA levels above 40 umol/L were compared. Maternal and fetal complication rates were significantly increased in the group with fasting bile acid level >40 umol/L (p40 umol/L, 1st minute and 5th minute Apgar scores were found to be statistically significantly lower, and the need for neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) increased significantly (p 40 umol/L. In particular, the significant increase in adverse pregnancy outcomes above certain SBA levels may guide clinicians to achieve better clinical outcomes in the management of pregnancies complicated by ICP.
