REFINEMENTS IN MANAGING MATERNAL WEIGHT ADJUSTMENT FOR INTERPRETING PRENATAL SCREENING RESULTS

1 Dec 1996

Abstract excerpt

This study examines the relationship between maternal weight and serum levels of alpha-fetoprotein, unconjugated oestriol, and human chorionic gonadotropin in a population of 47,585 women being provided with prenatal screening for Down's syndrome and open neural tube defects. The study population contains sufficient numbers of women at the extremes of weight to allow the determination that a reciprocal-linear...
