Scientists hunt for blood test to predict dangerous pregnancy conditions

NCT ID NCT01490489

Summary

This study aimed to find a better way to predict serious pregnancy complications like pre-eclampsia and poor fetal growth. Researchers tested whether measuring a specific protein (EG-VEGF) in a pregnant person's blood between 14-18 weeks could serve as an early warning sign. The goal was to identify at-risk pregnancies earlier to allow for closer monitoring and management.
