During pregnancy, if screening tests in the second trimester of pregnancy show an increased risk of SLOs, additional complementary studies including ultrasound and genetic testing on amniotic fluid are performed. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between second trimester screening tests, ultrasound, and amniocentesis findings in SLOs occurrence. Materials & Methods : This study was a cross-sectional descriptive study. 44 pregnant women referred to the perinatology department of Shahid Motahari Medical Education Center with positive results for SLOs were included in the study. The correlation between second trimester screening tests, ultrasound and amniocentesis findings in confirming SLOs as well as DHCR7 gene expression in terms of common IVS8-1G>C mutation were measured. Results : Data showed that one of 44 cases with high-risk second trimester screening test for SLOs was positive for IVS8-1G>C mutation of DHCR7 gene. Conclusion : The findings showed that although positive screening tests are new screening methods for SLOs, genetic tests are also needed for definitive diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":21996,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Medical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82638618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the increasing incidence of this cancer in Iran, the present study was designed to determine the prevalence of osteoporosis and its relationship with serum levels of vitamin K2 in the patients with colon cancer before and after colectomy. Materials &Methods : In this descriptive-analytical study, 38 patients with colon cancer who underwent colectomy in Imam Khomeini Hospital in Urmia were included in the study. Demographic information, BMD, and vitamin K2 levels of the patients before and after colectomy were collected and recorded in a checklist. Data were analyzed using SPSS Version 17 statistical software. Results : From 38 patients with colorectal cancer, 34.2% were male and 65.8% were female. The mean age of the patients was 58.5 ± 12.7 years. Reviewing bone density examinations done by Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) in hip and spine of the patients showed that osteoporosis was higher in both places after colectomy, and their significant differences between them (P-Values were 0.043 for hip and P0.009 for spine). Conclusion : The results of this study showed that osteoporosis in the hip and spine of the patients with colon cancer increased after colectomy compared to it before colectomy. However, the correlation between serum vitamin K2 levels and osteoporosis was not significant.","PeriodicalId":21996,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Medical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84351086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
