Angiogenic factorsvsDoppler surveillance in the prediction of adverse outcome among late-pregnancy small-for- gestational-age fetuses

Objectives To compare the value of Doppler surveillance with maternal blood angiogenic factors at diagnosis for the prediction of adverse outcome in late‐pregnancy small‐for‐gestational‐age ( SGA ) fetuses. Methods In a cohort of 198 SGA fetuses we evaluated the association of Doppler indices (mean uterine artery pulsatility index ( UtA‐PI ) and cerebroplacental ratio ( CPR )) and angiogenic factors (maternal serum levels of soluble fms‐like...
