Effectiveness of Alpha-Fetoprotein Variants L2 and L3 as Substitutes of Alpha-Fetoprotein in Screening for Fetal Trisomy 18

2019-09-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Purpose To evaluate the effectiveness of alpha-fetoprotein variants (AFP-L2, AFP-L3) for fetal screening of Trisomy 18 in place of alpha fetoprotein (AFP). Methods A case-control study was conducted. The case group included 39 pregnant women diagnosed by karyotype analysis of amniotic fluid cells as bearing Trisomy 18 fetuses. The control group included 48 pregnant women with clinica...
