A biochemical study on the kinetics of kininogen in asphyxiated newborn.

From the viewpoint of fetal distress related disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), the Hageman Factor, kinin-kallikrein system were investigated and on the other hand the adaptation of the normal newborn to extrauterine life was also evaluated. (1) The Kininogen volume of the cord venous blood was approximately 1/2-1/3 or there abouts and was remarkable in serious cases of asphyxiated newborn. (2) In a similar manner the Hageman factor decreases in asphyxiated newborn. On the other hand, SFMC increases in aspyxiation as well as FDP. According to these results, there seems to be a coagulation obstruction due to consumption. Or it may be interpreted as an inhibition of kinin separation. In any event it may be considered as a rational contribution to the living body. (3) Based on the above, in cases of serious asphyxiation, DIC may possibly play a role and in these cases and the kininkallikrein system may be one of the mediators.[1]
