There were significant differences between cord blood adiponectin, leptin, erythropoietin and PH in different degrees of HIE with significantly lower cord blood adiponectin and PH and significantly higher cord blood leptin and erythropoietin in severe degree of hypoxia compared with moderate and in moderate degree compared with mild degree of hypoxia.There was significant positive correlation between cord blood erythropoietin and leptin and significant negative correlation between cord blood erythropoietin and adiponectin and between cord blood erythropoietin and PH in studied neonates with hypoxia.
