目的:研究神经元特异性烯醇化酶(NSE)在宫内窘迫新生儿脑损伤早期的变化。方法:选取2015年1月—2018年7月广州市南方医科大学南方医院收治的62例宫内窘迫新生儿作为研究对象,依据出生第1天NSE水平是否>30.0μg/L分为低水平组与高水平...目的:研究神经元特异性烯醇化酶(NSE)在宫内窘迫新生儿脑损伤早期的变化。方法:选取2015年1月—2018年7月广州市南方医科大学南方医院收治的62例宫内窘迫新生儿作为研究对象,依据出生第1天NSE水平是否>30.0μg/L分为低水平组与高水平组,各31例。两组均接受头颅MRI、NSE检查,比较不同时间点情况。结果:低水平组出生后1、4、7 d NSE水平低于高水平组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。低水平组出生后7、14 d新生儿神经行为测定评分高于高水平组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。低水平组头颅MRI检查异常信号阳性率低于高水平组,差异有统计学意义(P=0.019)。结论:早期NSE水平较高时,多数宫内窘迫新生儿脑损伤情况较为严重,提示NSE水平可为宫内窘迫新生儿脑损伤的早期诊断提供参考依据。展开更多
