This article, published in the journal Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, examines the correlation between biochemical measurements of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and free beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (fbHCG) and the risk of preterm birth. The study analyzed data from 664 patients who had first trimester prenatal screenings and tracked their gestational age at delivery. The results showed that lower levels of PAPP-A were associated with preterm labor, regardless of its spontaneity or iatrogenicity. The authors conclude that decreased concentration of PAPP-A is a significant risk factor for preterm birth. [Extracted from the article] |
