Abstract

A number of groups are currently examining the potential of screening for pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes at 12 weeks' gestation. This can be performed at the time of combined first-trimester screening for aneuploidy using a similar method of regression analysis to combine multiple demographic and investigative factors. At present, research into the prediction of pre-eclampsia is more robust and is associated with the potential for therapeutic intervention that can reduce the prevalence of early-onset pre-eclampsia and improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Quality assessment of first-trimester screening for preterm pre-eclampsia

I. Dhaifalah, E. Magalova, D. Studnykova, J. Havalova, E. Slintakova, H. Cuckle

Summary: This study assesses the performance and impact of first-trimester preterm pre-eclampsia screening in a single center. The results show a high detection rate but further evaluation is needed to determine the impact on the condition.

Routine first-trimester pre-eclampsia screening and risk of preterm birth

V. GIORGIONE, O. QUINTERO MENDEZ, A. PINAS, W. ANSLEY, B. THILAGANATHAN

Summary: Preterm birth (PTB) is a major public health issue worldwide, and this study aimed to investigate whether there is a shared uteroplacental etiology in PTB subtypes during the first trimester of pregnancy. The analysis found that factors used to predict preterm PE risk could also be used to predict PTB at < 33 weeks, suggesting a shared etiological pathway for preterm births.

Can Thyroid Screening in the First Trimester Improve the Prediction of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus?

Zagorka Milovanovic, Dejan Filimonovic, Ivan Soldatovic, Natasa Karadzov Orlic

Summary: This study assessed the clinical utility of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) marker, elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and thyroid antibodies in predicting gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The results showed a positive correlation between increased TSH levels and the presence of thyroid antibodies with the risk of GDM. Patient age, TSH 4 IU/mL, and anti TPO Ab > 35 IU/mL were identified as significant predictors of GDM, improving the screening performance in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Is mid-gestational uterine artery Doppler still useful in a setting with routine first-trimester pre-eclampsia screening? A cohort study

Anna Meroni, Margaret Mascherpa, Monica Minopoli, Benjamin Lambton, Rawan Elkalaawy, Alexander Frick, Basky Thilaganathan

Summary: Routine mid-gestational uterine artery Doppler can modify the risk for preterm pre-eclampsia after first-trimester combined pre-eclampsia screening. Women at low risk in the first trimester but with high mid-gestational uterine artery Doppler resistance had a higher prevalence of preterm pre-eclampsia. This suggests that pregnancy care should not be de-escalated for women at high risk in the first trimester with low mid-gestational uterine artery Doppler resistance, and escalation of care may be justified for women at low risk but with high mid-gestational uterine artery Doppler resistance.

First-Trimester Screening for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Twin Pregnancies

Olga Buerger, Tania Elger, Antonia Varthaliti, Argyro Syngelaki, Alan Wright, Kypros H. Nicolaides

Summary: In this study, we found that maternal characteristics and medical history can be used to predict the risk of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), with a higher risk in twin pregnancies. Factors such as maternal age, weight, family history, racial background, and conception method all influence the risk of GDM.

First Trimester Plasma MicroRNA Levels Predict Risk of Developing Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Cecilia Legare, Veronique Desgagne, Kathrine Thibeault, Frederique White, Andree-Anne Clement, Cedrik Poirier, Zhong Cheng Luo, Michelle S. Scott, Pierre-Etienne Jacques, Patrice Perron, Renee Guerin, Marie-France Hivert, Luigi Bouchard

Summary: The study aims to identify and predict plasmatic miRNAs associated with and predictive of GDM during the first trimester of pregnancy. Next-generation sequencing was used to quantify miRNA in discovery and replication cohorts. Seventeen miRNAs were identified as being associated with GDM development in both cohorts, and certain miRNAs showed slightly better prediction performance than classic GDM risk factors. Combining miRNAs and classic risk factors further improved the prediction values.

First trimester glycosylated hemoglobin for gestational diabetes mellitus screening

Cihan Cetin, Nur Dokuzeylul Gungor, Melike Yavuz

Summary: HbA1c shows promise as a biomarker for screening GDM during the first trimester of pregnancy, with a cut-off value of 5.33%, sensitivity of 71.9%, and specificity of 82.8%. Pregnant women with ft-HbA1c levels above the prediabetes limit are at increased risk of developing GDM.

First-trimester screening for pre-eclampsia and small for gestational age: A comparison of the gaussian and Fetal Medicine Foundation algorithms

Berta Serrano, Erika Bonacina, Carlota Rodo, Pablo Garcia-Manau, Maria Angeles Sanchez-Duran, Maria Pancorbo, Cristina Forcada, Maria Teresa Murcia, Ana Perestelo, Mireia Armengol-Alsina, Manel Mendoza, Elena Carreras

Summary: This study compared the predictive accuracy of the Gaussian algorithm and the FMF algorithm for early-onset pre-eclampsia (PE) and small for gestational age (SGA). The results showed that these two algorithms had similar performances for most outcomes and marker combinations. However, the Gaussian algorithm had significant differences in predicting early-onset PE in certain combinations.

First trimester screening for pre-eclampsia and targeted aspirin prophylaxis: a cost-effectiveness cohort study

Summary: This study investigates the cost-effectiveness of first trimester pre-eclampsia screening using the FMF algorithm and targeted aspirin prophylaxis compared with standard care. The results show that screening using the FMF algorithm can lead to cost savings and improved QALY values.

Adverse pregnancy outcomes in women at increased risk of preterm pre-eclampsia on first-trimester combined screening

Monica Minopoli, Laure Noel, Anna Meroni, Margaret Mascherpa, Alex Frick, Basky Thilaganathan

Summary: The objective of this study is to evaluate the positive predictive value (PPV) of first-trimester combined PE screening for various placenta-mediated adverse pregnancy outcomes. The findings suggest that women at high risk for preterm PE are also at increased risk for other adverse outcomes such as PTB, SGA birth, and stillbirth. Therefore, it is recommended to implement higher surveillance and interventions to mitigate these risks.

Effect of routine first-trimester combined screening for pre-eclampsia on small-for-gestational-age birth: secondary interrupted time series analysis

G. P. Guy, K. Leslie, D. Diaz Gomez, K. Forenc, E. Buck, A. Bhide, B. Thilaganathan

Summary: This retrospective cohort study evaluated the impact of a first-trimester combined screening program for pre-eclampsia using the FMF algorithm. The results showed a significant reduction in the rate of term small-for-gestational age (SGA) birth below the 10th percentile, but no effect on SGA birth below the 5th or 3rd percentile.

10. Role of high dimensional technology in preeclampsia (omics in preeclampsia)

Lina Youssef, Lea Testa, Francesca Crovetto, Fatima Crispi

Summary: Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific disease with an unknown precise cause. Multi-omics approaches have been used to study the molecular mechanisms of preeclampsia, and various genetic variants, altered gene expressions, potential biomarkers, and metabolic changes have been identified. Microbiomics studies have also found dysbiosis in the microbiota of pregnant women with preeclampsia. Further research is needed to integrate and translate these findings into clinical practice.
