Exploring Perinatal Asphyxia by Metabolomics

Abstract: Brain damage related to perinatal asphyxia is the second cause of neuro-disability worldwide. Its incidence was estimated in 2010 as 8.5 cases per 1000 live births worldwide, with no further recent improvement even in more industrialized countries. If so, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is still an issue of global health concern. It is thought that a consistent number of cases may be avoided, and its sequelae may be preventable by a prompt and efficient physical and therapeutic treatment. The lack of early, re… Show more

“…The prevalence of perinatal asphyxia is ~2 per 1000 live births in developed countries, but the number of those affected rises to 26 per 1000 in developing countries [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. Perinatal asphyxia occurs worldwide in approximately 4 million newborns annually [ 7 ] and is responsible for 23% of all infant deaths and 8% of child deaths [ 8 ].…”

“…Perinatal asphyxia occurs worldwide in approximately 4 million newborns annually [ 7 ] and is responsible for 23% of all infant deaths and 8% of child deaths [ 8 ]. Up to 25% of survivors have persistent neurological deficits [ 2 ], which is the second most common cause of neurological disability in the world [ 3 ]. Despite advances in treating the causes of perinatal asphyxia and asphyxia alone, the number of perinatal asphyxia cases has not decreased over the last decade [ 9 ], and its consequence is the development of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy diagnosed 1.8 per 1000 live births [ 10 , 11 , 12 ] with further deterioration the postpartum neurological status of newborns.…”

“…A wide body of literature on the impact of hypoxic-ischaemic conditions on different biofluids, and organs, metabolome in both animal models and human studies exists, among which an important part is devoted to the study of perinatal asphyxia 10 15 and sudden infant death syndrome 16 18 . Although scientifically remarkable, these models could not be translated to a mechanical asphyxia setup.…”
