Abstract:
Objective To study the probability of screening the high risk people of hypercholestrolemia by cholestrol level in cord blood. Methods Cord venous blood were collected in 1000 newborns and the cholestrol and glucose level were measured. Maternal diet, birth weight and delivery time were recorded. Results The mean level of cholestrol in cord blood was (64.86?17.25) mg% in full term newborns, 42 cases were higher than 100 mg%(4.2%). No relationship was shown between the cholestrol level in cord blood and that in the mother blood or maternal ,diet or delivery time. The glucose level in cord blood was affected by what the mother eating during the 3 hours before delivery. Conclusions The cholestrol level in cord blood of full term newborns may be used as the earliest screening method for hypercholestrolemia people.
