Scientists hunt for hidden causes of poor fetal growth
NCT ID NCT07025031
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at why some babies grow poorly early in pregnancy for no known reason. Researchers will measure a key hormone (progesterone) in the mother's blood and examine a protective protein in the placenta after birth. By comparing 58 pregnancies, they hope to uncover clues that could lead to earlier detection or future treatments.
