THE CORRELATIONS BETWEEN PLASMA GLUCOSE AND ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS LEVELS IN SUDANESE WOMEN AND THEIR NEONATES
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
Essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) which are not synthesize in body and should be provided in diets. The aims of our research is to estimate the correlation between the saturated, N -3 and N-6 fatty acids with blood glucose levels of non pregnant, pregnant Sudanese women and their neonates. 5 mls venous blood was dropped from the study groups, with detailed history and examination. Plasma lipids were extracted by Folch method and separated by Gas Liquid Chromatography (GLC). Blood glucose was measured using electronic glucometer. Data was analyzed by using SPSS version 16(SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA). Data was analyzed by using SPSS version 16(SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA). The results are given as mean and standard deviation (mean ± SD). In addition to P values and correlation for some parameters. Our study demonstrated a positive co relation between saturated and omega-6 fatty acids whereas a negative co relation was found between omega-3 fatty acids with glucose levels of the study groups.
