Özet
Introduction: The etiopathogenesis of HG is still unclear. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of YKL-40 protein as an inflammatory marker and evaluate the levels of IMA as an oxidative marker in hyperemesis gravidarum women. Materials and Methods: Totally 35 patients with hyperemesis gravidarum and 35 healthy pregnants were included in the study. Singleton pregnancies between 6+0 week and 13+6 weeks of gestation, with normal fetal anatomy were included in the study. Complete blood count, complete urine analyze, biochemical tests and thyroid function tests were done. Results: There was no significant difference between groups for demographical features (age, gravidity, gestational age, body mass index). Also, there was no statistically significant difference between groups for IMA levels (p>0.05). The median level of YKL-40 was higher in pregnants with hyperemesis gravidarum than normal pregnants but the difference was not statistically significance (p>0.05). Conclusion: Further comprehensive studies with more number of patients are needed to show the efficacy of YKL-40 and IMA levels for predicting hyperemesis gravidarum and even monitoring of the treatment.
