Pregnancy has many effects in the body

Anyone who knows that pregnancy transforms the body voluntarily and now we have a more detailed picture of blood, organ and immune system. This can help treatments after pregnancy treatments, as well as the risks of developing certain conditions while pregnant.
“Mother body We got a view of changing the way a week a week, in which to compensate for tremendous load, and how long it is necessary to recover after delivery,” says Uri Alon Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel.
Despite its importance, pregnancy has been underestimated, says Alon. For example, previous research has monitored how 20 blood markers, such as salt and iron level, change Dozens of women during pregnancy for approximately 6 weeks After delivery, using samples made in standard health. “These experiments are usually made in a small number of patients, and they are delivered each quarter or more than once again,” Alon says.
For a broader view, Alon and his colleagues received more than 160,000 women before the blood samples collected more than 160,000 women, with more than 300,000 pregnancies. Together, these samples took a photo of the body within 18 months after the 18-month before inspecting, each woman provides data for a few points in time. This approach provides useful views when the body usually changes in the level of the population during pregnancy, although to monitor the same woman with time, they would give better career Christoph Lees Imperial College in London.
Researchers made changes in 76 blood markers, such as liver, kidneys, blood, muscle, bone, and protein, salt and salt that indicate the function of the immune system. They found that each of these markers have changed a lot from previous level of conception during pregnancy before returning to previous levels of pregnancy before or take another way before retreating at the base of pregnancy.
They are noteworthy, including scientists with 36 markers, including blood coagulation, after rebounding, 31 markers took more than 10 weeks to recover. For example, changes in liver and immune system took about 5 months to return to previous levels of pregnancy, and several kidney markers took approximately one year. Some bone and muscle markers took even more. What does it mean to health health is clearly, but it should be explored in future work, says Alon.
Moreover, other markers were never returned to shoe levels, even a year from birth. “An old-looking approach than six or eight weeks after pregnancy, everyone returns to completely normal, is clear,” says Lees.
For example, the level of iron was low after giving birth. “Women are quite anemical (having low iron levels) after delivery, because of bleeding, and a fetus being developed takes many iron stores,” says Lees. “We usually believe that they need six to 12 months to return to normal iron stores. This suggests that it can survive.”
Meanwhile, the levels of a protein called CP were high. “CRP has several different processes, it is certainly one of these inflammation, but hormonal changes can also affect it,” says Lees. In another analysis, the group examined the differences between previous women in previous women – it is a situation during pregnancy, where high blood pressure can cause headaches, visual problems and pain under the ribs. This revealed, before the audience, women who developed previous eclampsia had high levels of blood cells and had a protein called alt.
“For decades, the placenta is not properly implanted, and if it is not properly implanted, the blood supply is interrupted, it releases hormones and substances that lead to great blood pressure,” says Lees. “But some studies suggest that they have different cardiovascular functions before pregnancy – these findings are added to that theory.”
If more studies show pre-visual markers that actually represent the risk of eclampsia, which could be used to jeopardize women with great risk. “Then you can directly address ways to improve health before pregnancy, both through exercise and lifestyle advice – to lower the risk,” says Lees.
