The objective of this study is to determine the level of pesticides and their role in cases of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).
This was designed as a case-control study. Gas chromatography was used to characterize the pesticide level in 70 cases and 70 controls. Case refers to women with RPL, whereas controls refer to women with full-term delivery.
A higher level of pesticide, namely beta-hexachlorocyclohexane, malathion, chlorpyrifos, and fenvalerate was found in the case group as compared to control group ( < 0.05).
The present study suggests that high exposure of pesticide (organochlorine and organophosphates) may increase the risk of RPL in females of the subhumid region of India.
本研究的目的是确定农药水平及其在复发性流产(RPL)病例中的作用。
本研究设计为病例对照研究。采用气相色谱法对70例病例和70例对照者的农药水平进行测定。病例组指复发性流产的女性,对照组指足月分娩的女性。
与对照组相比,病例组中农药β-六氯环己烷、马拉硫磷、毒死蜱和氰戊菊酯的水平更高(<0.05)。
本研究表明,在印度半湿润地区,女性高暴露于农药(有机氯和有机磷)可能会增加复发性流产的风险。
