IntroductionVitamin D deficiency in pregnant women may result in reduced neonatal development due to the fact that systemic vitamin D status during fetal life depends on maternal concentrations. Some authors reported significant differences in neonatal anthropometric measurements depending on maternal vitamin D concentrations.ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between maternal and cord blood concentrations of vitamin D and neonatal anthropometric measurements at birth.Materials and methodsThis study included 94 pregnant women, at term, who delivered at the Department of Obstetrics, Women’s Diseases and Gynecological Oncology, Medical University of Warsaw. Total serum 25(OH)D concentration was measured in mother–child pairs, and newborn anthropometric data were collected. A multiple regression analysis was used for statistical analysis.ResultsNo relationship between maternal and neonatal cord blood vitamin D concentrations vs. neonatal weight, length, head, and chest circumference at birth was found (p > 0.05). Severe vitamin D deficiency (<10 ng/ml) was detected in 10.6%, deficiency (10–20 ng/ml) in 39.4%, insufficiency (20–30 ng/ml) in 39.4%, and optimal vitamin D concentration (>30 ng/ml) only in 10.6% of the pregnant women. Cord blood vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/ml) was found in 28.7% of the neonates.ConclusionNo differences between neonatal anthropometric measurements of infants born to mothers with normal and deficient vitamin D concentrations were found.
urodzone przed 37. tygodniem ciąży i z masą ciała < 2500 g powinny być objęte tym samym schematem szczepień co dzieci urodzone o czasie. Cel pracy: Ocena realizacji szczepień na oddziałach neonatologicznych II i III stopnia referencji województwa mazowieckiego w latach 2015-2016 u noworodków urodzonych przed ≤ 33. tygodniem ciąży. Materiał i metody: Na oddziałach województwa mazowieckiego oceniono realizację szczepień przeciwko pneumokokom (PCV), krztuścowi, tężcowi, błonicy, Haemophilus influenzae i poliomyelitis. Wyniki: W analizowanej grupie 2149 noworodków o dojrzałości ≤ 33. tygodnia ciąży tylko u 388 (15,7%) wykonano szczepienie przeciwko pneumokokom na oddziale noworodkowym przed wypisem do domu. W grupie dzieci dojrzałości 23 0/7-28 6/7 tygodnia ciąży szczepienia te wykonano u 217, tj. u 51,05% dzieci o tej dojrzałości, co stanowi 55,92% wszystkich zaszczepionych dzieci przeciwko pneumokokom. W drugiej grupie 1724 dzieci o dojrzałości 29.-33. tygodnia ciąży szczepienie przeciwko pneumokokom otrzymało 171 noworodków, tj. 44,08% wszystkich zaczepionych przeciwko pneumokokom i 9,92% dzieci o tej dojrzało
