Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein levels and fetal outcome in early second-trimester oligohydramnios.
Early second-trimester oligohydramnios was associated with normal maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) levels in nine out of 26 cases (35 per cent). Congenital malformations of the fetal urinary tract resulting in fetal anuria were present in nine cases; in seven of them, normal MSAFP levels were measured. In contrast, normal MSAFP levels were established in only 2 out of the 17 cases witho...
متن کاملFirst-Trimester Maternal Serum Levels of sFLT1, PGF and ADMA Predict Preeclampsia
BACKGROUND Placental growth factor (PGF), soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFLT1) and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) are involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Abnormal maternal sFLT1, PGF and ADMA levels are detectable weeks before the onset of preeclampsia. OBJECTIVE To investigate sFLT1, PGF and ADMA in the first trimester of pregnancy as predictors of preeclampsia. METHODS...
متن کاملElevated maternal serum α-fetoprotein level in a fetus with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome in the second trimester of pregnancy.
BACKGROUND Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a rare disorder characterized by macrosomia, macroglossia, visceromegaly, and omphalocele and an increased risk of growing tumors. Prenatal and postnatal high levels of serum alpha-fetoprotein are associated with several diseases and neoplasms including hepatoblastomas and other hepatic tumors. The diagnosis of BWS is usually made in the postnatal...
متن کاملRelation between maternal weight and serum alpha-fetoprotein concentration during the second trimester.
Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein concentrations are influenced by maternal weight during the second trimester. Heavier pregnant women have lower median values, apparently as a result of a diluting effect of larger blood volume. This phenomenon is of clinical interest because alpha-fetoprotein concentration in a pregnant woman's serum is one of the factors considered in assessing risk of poor ou...
