متن کاملPregnancy-associated plasma protein a as predictor of outcome in patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes.
Predictor of Outcome in Patients With Suspected Acute Coronary Syndromes We read with interest the article by Lund et al1 on circulating pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) in 136 patients evaluated for suspected acute coronary syndrome without cardiac troponin I elevation. PAPP-A concentrations above 2.9 mIU/L during the first 24 hours independently predicted cardiovascular death, n...
متن کاملPregnancy-associated plasma protein A in pregnancy-related gynaecologic emergency.
Serum concentrations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) were measured in patients with pregnancy-related gynaecologic emergencies including ectopic pregnancy (n = 124) and intrauterine abortion (n = 40). The results were compared with those in normal pregnancy (n = 136) and non-pregnant women (n = 460). In ectopic pregnancy and intrauterine abortion, the PAPP-A levels were lower ...

BACKGROUND Prevention of viable spontaneous preterm birth and low birth weight through screening is one of the key aims of antenatal care as these have implications for the child, mother and society. If women can be identified to be at high risk of these adverse birth outcomes in early pregnancy, they can be targeted for more intensive antenatal surveillance and prophylactic interventions. OB...
