    Association of Respiratory Distress Syndrome and Perinatal Hypoxia with Histologic Chorioamnionitis in Preterm Infants
    (2014) Ecevit, Ayse; Anuk-Ince, Deniz; Yapakci, Ece; Kupana-Ayva, Sebnem; Kurt, Abdullah; Yanik, Filiz F.; Tarcan, Aylin; 0000-0002-4369-2110; 0000-0002-4430-444X; 0000-0002-2232-8117; 24827948; I-6746-2016; HIU-0129-2022; AAJ-4616-2021; AIC-4823-2022
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between neonatal mortality-morbidity and pregnancies with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), particularly those complicated by histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA), in preterm infants. A retrospective study was conducted on 58 preterm neonates born to 46 pregnant women with PPROM. Maternal characteristics, placental examination, and neonatal morbidity and mortality were analyzed. Of 1,392 deliveries, 46 (3.3%) pregnancies and 58 newborn infants were complicated with PPROM. HCA was present in 21 (1.5%) cases, and 15 of them were <28 weeks of gestational age. In the HCA (+) group, 8/21(38%) neonates had 5-minute Apgar scores of <5, 12/21 (57.1%) infants had patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and 16/21 (76.1%) infants had respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). The latency period was significantly longer and the rate of chorioamnionitis and percentage of major neonatal morbidity and mortality were significantly higher in preterm infants with gestational age <28 weeks. Respiratory distress syndrome, perinatal hypoxia and PDA were significantly associated with HCA in preterm infants.

    Neonatal cerebral sinovenous thrombosis: Two cases, two different gene polymorphisms and risk factors
    (2017) Turan, Ozden; Anuk-Ince, Deniz; Olcay, Lale; Sezer, Taner; Gulleroglu, Kaan; Yilmaz-Celik, Zerrin; Ecevit, Ayse; 0000-0002-4369-2110; 0000-0002-2232-8117; 0000-0002-7707-1881; 0000-0002-2278-1827; 0000-0003-1434-3824; 0000-0002-5684-0581; 29168367; I-6746-2016; AAJ-4616-2021; AAJ-2333-2021; AAJ-5931-2021; AAJ-8833-2021; AAK-3548-2021
    Cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) is a rare disease in the neonatal period and also the greatest risk of neonatal mortality and morbidity. In this report, we presented two cases with CSVT and different risk factors. One of these cases had methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T homozygous polymorphism and the other case had both MTHFR A1298C homozygous polymorphism, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) 4G/5G polymorphism and elevated lipoprotein a. Early diagnosis and prompt initiation of therapy of neonatal CSVT may prevent neonatal mortality and poor long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes.
