Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between serum betatrophin and early growth of macrosomia.Method Full-term macrosomia born in the Maternity and Children's Branch of Ruian People's Hospital of Zhejiang Province from January to June 2018 followed up to 6 months and their mother were enrolled in the prospective case-control study as the fetal macrosomia group.The full-term infants appropriate for gestational age,who met all the above requirements were randomly enrolled in the AGA group in a 1∶1 ratio.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the level of blood betatrophin at birth and 6 months respectively,and the relationship between serum betatrophin level and the growth and development of infants was analyzed.Result A total of 4 823 live births were delivered during the study period,308 of them were full-term macrosomia,the incidence was 6.4％.30 cases were included in the macrosomia group and the AGA group,respectively.The level of blood betatrophin at birth and 6 months in the macrosomia group were higher than that in the AGA Group [(1 088.3 ± 67.8) ng/L vs.(929.5 ± 81.0) ng/L,(1 057.1 ± 114.2) ng/L vs.(976.4 ±76.6) ng/L],and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of overweight was 26.7％ (8/30) in the macrosomia group and 6.7％ (2/30) in AGA group at 6 months of age,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The level of blood betatrophin in overweight infants was statistically significantly higher than that in non-overweight infants (P ＜ 0.001).There was a positive correlation (P ＜ 0.001) between the level of blood betatrophin at the age of 6 months and the weight,body length,Z-score of weight/body length,triglyceride level at birth and the age of 6 months,and the level of umbilical blood betatrophin.But it was not correlated to gender,feeding pattern,other components of blood lipid,blood glucose and insulin in the cord blood and mother's blood,and the level of blood betatrophin in mother's blood (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The betatrophin is involved in the regulation of infant growth and development,which is associated with the occurrence of overweight.
