ABSTRACT: Objective: In this study, we compared the biochemical markers of imminent abortion,
missed abortion, and healthy pregnant women in the first trimester to see if
there were any differences. Materials and Methods: The study method is
prospective. Pregnant women who applied to the obstetrics clinic of Istanbul
Training and Research Hospital between 01.04.22 and 31.10.22 were diagnosed with abortion imminens or missed abortion
between 6 weeks and 12 weeks or had normal pregnancy follow-up, had no chronic
diseases, and did not take magnesium and calcium supplements were included in
the study. 20 pregnant women with missed abortion, 20 pregnant women with
abortion imminens diagnosis and 20 normal pregnant women who met the criteria
were included in the study. Magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), copper (Cu), zinc
(Zn) and hemogram (CBC) levels were checked in pregnant women included in the
study. Results: The Mg, Cu, Zn, and CBC values of the study participants’ women did not differ in a
statistically significant way. When compared to pregnant women who had a normal
pregnancy process, the difference in Ca value was found to be statistically
substantially smaller in pregnant women who were diagnosed with abortion
imminens and missed abortion. The findings of our study suggest that serum Ca
levels be measured prior to conception or at the initial visit. Conclusion: Serum
Ca levels were found to be significantly lower in the missed abortion group
than in the abortus imminens and normal pregnant groups in our study (p 0.05).
