TY - JOUR AU - Koletzko, Berthold AB - Oxidative stress and antioxidant protection in the perinatal period a,b b Hiromichi Shoji and Berthold Koletzko Abbreviations Purpose of review Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathophysiology of CoQ coenzyme Q 10 10 cTnT cardiac troponin T disorders during pregnancy, childbirth and the postnatal DHA docosahexaenoic acid period, but open questions exist on the effects of EPA eicosapentaenoic acid GPx glutathione peroxidase antioxidants, the role of oxidative stress during resuscitation GSS Goxidized gluthatione and the antioxidative protection of human milk. MDA malondialdehyde NAG N-acetyl-glucosaminidase Recent findings OxR 100% oxygen resuscitated In a randomized controlled trial, fish oil supplementation to PUFA polyunsaturated fatty acid RAR room air resuscitated pregnant women did not enhance oxidative stress. Two ROS reactive oxygen species randomized controlled trials supplementing high dosages of SOD superoxide dismutase TAC total antioxidant capacity both vitamins C and E did not show any reduction in the incidence of preeclampsia. A systematic review and 2007 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins meta-analysis of studies comparing resuscitation of 1363-1950 asphyxiated infants either with 100% oxygen or with room air demonstrated significantly lower neonatal mortality with use of room air.
