Abstract
Özet
Objective: The asymptomatic colonization of the urinary tract in pregnant women may result in severe medical and obstetric complications. The aim of this study was to study the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria in cases of elevated levels of the anticardiolipin antibody in women who experience spontaneous abortions.
Amaç: Gebe kadmlarda idrar yolu asemptomatik kolonizasyonu ciddi tibbi ve obstetrik komplikasyonlara neden olabilir. Bu çalijmanin amaci kendiliginden düjükyapan kadmlarda antikardiyolipin antikor düzeylerinin artmasi durumunda asemptomatik bakteriüri prevalansmi arajtirmaktir.
Materials and Methods: A total of 12 women were enrolled in this case control study, including 60 patients with a history of three or more abortions and 60 healthy pregnant women. All participants were screened for ACL (IgG) and with a urine culture.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu vaka kontrollü çalijmaya 12 kadm dahil edildi. Geçmiç düjükleri CJç ve daha-fazla oían 60 ve saglikli 60 gebe çalijmaya dahil edildi.Tüm ACL (IgG) ve idrar kültürü açismdan tarandi..
Results: Overall, 19 (31.7%) patients and seven (i 1.7%) healthy pregnant women were positive for ACL The mean concentrations were 67.1 ±27.2 lU/mL in the patients and 17.41 ±6.12 lU/mL in the healthy controls (p
