TL;DR: First trimester serum levels of PlGF and sFlt1 may identify women at high risk for PE and not markedly differ between the groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity and preeclampsia: the potential role of inflammation.
TL;DR: In women with preeclampsia, there was evidence of increased systemic inflammation in the first trimester, suggesting that inflammation might be part of a causal pathway through which obesity predisposes to preeClampsia.
Journal ArticleDOI
First-Trimester C-Reactive Protein and Subsequent Gestational Diabetes
TL;DR: In women who develop GDM, there is evidence of increased inflammation during the first trimester, and this association is mediated in part by increased BMI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased risk of cesarean delivery with advancing maternal age: Indications and associated factors in nulliparous women
TL;DR: Cesarean delivery for the diagnoses of failure to progress and fetal distress was more frequent in older patients, although management of labor dystocia for these patients was similar to that for younger patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
First trimester insulin resistance and subsequent preeclampsia: a prospective study.
TL;DR: First trimester SHBG levels may be a useful biomarker for preeclampsia, especially among lean women who otherwise would be perceived to be at low risk, and among overweight women, the association was mitigated.
