About

In the study, the potential effects of vitamin D deficiency on fetal neurodevelopmental parameters will be examined. In this context, fetal brain development will be compared between pregnant women with and without vitamin D deficiency, revealing the possible neurodevelopmental outcomes of vitamin D deficiency during the prenatal period.

Full description

Vitamin D is a vitamin that regulates calcium and phosphorus balance in the body and plays a crucial role in bone health. Additionally, it is known to have effects on immune system functions and neurological health. Pregnancy is a period in which vitamin D requirements increase, and vitamin D deficiency can lead to various health problems. It is believed that vitamin D deficiency may have adverse effects on fetal neurological development and may be associated with certain pathological conditions during pregnancy.

Neurosonography is a critical tool for assessing the effects of prematurity, vitamin D deficiency, and other pregnancy complications on the fetus. This article will focus on the evaluation of neurosonographic findings in pregnant women with vitamin D deficiency.
