Prognosis of iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women with different somatotypes

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Anemia during pregnancy, undiagnosed and untreated promptly, is the cause of various obstetric complications: spontaneous miscarriages, premature birth, placental insufficiency, obstetric bleeding, ante- and intrapartum fetal death.

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women with different somatotypes and to develop a prognostic model for the pathology onset.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined 390 pregnant women. Somatometry was performed according to the method of R.N. Dorokhov in terms of pregnancy not exceeding 9-10 weeks. Of the examined pregnant women, 110 were of the macrosomatotype, 173 of the meso- and 107 of the microsomatotype. In a clinical blood test, the levels of hemoglobin and red blood cells were determined using well-known methods. Blood iron levels were evaluated by the colorimetric method with ferrozine using a Parma Iron Reagents Kit (Parma Diagnostics Ltd., Russia). Serum hepcidin levels were determined spectrophotometrically using ELISA methods.

RESULTS: Iron deficiency anemia was most commonly detected in pregnant women of the macro- and microsomatotype, when compared to those of the mesosomatotype (p < 0.05). There was no severe anemia in the study groups. The levels of hematological parameters (serum iron and serum hepcidin) were significantly higher in the group of pregnant women with latent anemia, compared to the study group without signs of anemia (p < 0.05). In the second trimester, iron deficiency anemia occurred in the group of patients with latent anemia. Using multiple regression analysis, a formula was obtained for predicting the onset of iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women of different somatotypes.

CONCLUSIONS: Hematological parameters (serum iron and serum hepcidin) should be attributed to markers of iron deficiency anemia and timely predict the onset of pathology. The mathematical formula obtained allows predicting with high accuracy the onset of iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women, taking into account the somatotype in the first trimester of pregnancy, and timely preventing the onset of pathology.
