[Screening for pre-eclampsia in a low-risk population at 24 weeks: uterine artery Doppler flow velocimetry and genetic variants of factor V, prothrombin and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase].

Abstract excerpt

AIM: Pre-eclampsia is one of the major causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of screening of genetic thrombophilic mutations and uterine artery Doppler flow velocimetry at 24 weeks of gestation in the prediction of pre-eclampsia in low risk pregnant women. METHODS: We performed the genetic analysis for Leiden mutation of factor V gene...
