OBJECTIVES: To estimate the cord blood levels of @entity1261 ( @entity1261 ) and @entity2841 ( @entity2841 ) in preterm @entity1 and to study the relationship of these levels to pregnancy-induced @entity101 ( @entity5029 ) and absolute neutrophil counts. STUDY DESIGN: @entity1261 and @entity2841 levels in the cord blood of preterm neonates (n = 74) either with or without maternal @entity5029 were estimated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: @entity1 in the @entity5029 group had lower white blood cell, absolute neutrophil, absolute lymphocyte, and monocyte counts. The levels of @entity1261 in cord blood were significantly lower in @entity1 whose mothers had @entity5029 (P =.04) and in @entity1 with @entity1398 (P =. 01). @entity1261 levels were positively correlated with both absolute neutrophil count (P =.02) and total white blood cell count (P =.01). @entity2841 was undetectable in all subjects. According to logistic regression with @entity1398 as the dependent variable, only maternal @entity5029 (P <.001), gestational age (P <.001), and @entity1261 (P =.01) were independently related. CONCLUSION: In this study maternal @entity5029 and low gestational age were significantly associated with @entity1398 in premature @entity1 . Low @entity1261 levels may contribute to the @entity1398 that is commonly seen in @entity1 born to mothers with @entity5029 .
