RESUMO
We observed 164 preterm newborns with moderate and severe hypoxic brain injury and 25 healthy newborns, who were included into control group. The clinical, laboratory and diagnostic data were analyzed and determined levels of neurospecific enolase in serum, levels of vascular endothelial factor in serum and levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in serum during the neonatal period followed with assessment of mental development by the method of Zhurba in the control time. Revealed that additional predictors of adverse mental outcomes in preterm newborns with severe hypoxic brain injury under one year were the intrauterine growth hypotrophic of III level type, the high level of neurospecific enolase in serum and low level of vascular endothelial growth factor in serum in 1 month after delivery.
