dc.description.abstractObjective: The present study was designed to investigate the influence of third trimester maternal total protein, albumin, hemoglobin levels on birth weight. Material and Method: Between January 2005 and July 2005, 750 pregnant women applied for delivery at Zeynep Kamil Women's and Children Education and Research Hospital at 37-40 week's gestation were examined. Maternal total protein, albumin and hemoglobin levels were measured. Data included maternal age, gravidity, parity, gestational age, birth weight, gender, presence of iron supplementation and its duration. Results: The birth weight was significantly higher in anemic and hypoproteinemic groups compared those with normal levels. After adjusting for counfounding factors, significance of both findings lost. The cases received iron supplementation had infants with higher birth weight, however, it was not statistically significant (p:0.055). A significant positive relation was observed between birth weight and maternal age, gravidity, parity and gestational age. No relation found between maternal total protein, albumin, hemoglobin levels and birth weight. Conclusion: The last trimester maternal total protein, albumin, hemoglobin levels seem not to be a determining factor on infant's birth weight.en_US
