Associations of Maternal Serum Zonulin and Elements Concentrations with Neonatal Birth Weight: A Case-Control Study

WITHDRAWN: Is there an association between the serum zonulin concentration and the occurrence of PPROM?

“…The sample size calculation was based on G*Power Version 3.1.9.4 (Franz Faul, Universitat Kiel, Germany), and the standard effect size was determined to be 1.23 with a 5% margin of error and 95% power. At least 17 patients were included in each group [11]. Statistical analyses were performed using IBM SPSS 26.0 software (IBM Corp., Chicago, Illinois, USA).…”

“…Regardless of disease, there are numerous studies on the relationship between newborn birthweight and intestinal permeability. For instance, in a case-control study involving 368 infants categorized as born below 2500 grams and above 2500 grams, a notable link was discovered between intestinal permeability and newborn birthweight based on maternal serum ZO levels [11]. The serum levels of ZO and zinc in mothers of infants weighing more than 2500 grams were found to be signi cantly greater than those in mothers of low-birth-weight infants [11].…”

In our study, a positive correlation was found between newborn birthweight and maternal serum ZO levels and fetal cord blood levels in the PPROM group (p = 0.003 and p = 0.002, respectively).…”

“…The following nations participated in the studies: Iran (Azimi et al, 2014;Davari et al, 2020;Hasanzade et al, 2013;Hosseini et al, 2014;Khadem et al, 2011;Mirfeizi et al, 2016b;Mirmiran et al, 2019;Talaei et al, 2017;Vafa et al, 2012;Zahedifar et al, 2018;Zahmatkesh et al, 2012;Zare et al, 2019), Thailand (Sengsuk et al, 2016;Tangvarasittichai et al, 2015), India (Hendre et al, 2019;Soni & Bhatnagar, 2009), China (Lu et al, 2012), Brazil (Lira Neto et al, 2022, the United Kingdom (Akilen et al, 2010), Israel (Wainstein et al, 2011), the United States (Crawford, 2009), the Netherlands (Vanschoonbeek et al, 2006), Pakistan (Khan et al, 2003), and Germany (Mang et al, 2006).…”

“…T A B L E 1 Characteristics of included studies in meta-analysis.

Therefore, trim and fill methods were performed with 30 effect size (four imputed trials) and the findings were still significant (SMD: À1.82; 95% CI: À2.39, À1.25, p < 0.05).…”
