Background: Low-dose aspirin treatment reduces the risk of preeclampsia among high-risk pregnant women. Internationally, several first-trimester risk-calculation methods are applied.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the costs and benefits of different first-trimester preeclampsia risk estimation algorithms: EXPECT (an algorithmic prediction model based on maternal characteristics), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (a checklist of risk factors), and the Fetal Medicine Foundation (a prediction model using additional uterine artery Doppler measurement and laboratory testing) models, coupled with low-dose aspirin treatment, in comparison with no risk assessment.

: To evaluate longitudinal changes of angiogenic biomarkers in early- (EO-PD) versus late-onset (LO-PD) placental dysfunction. : Serum PlGF and sFlt-1 measured at different intervals in EO-PD (n= 43), LO-PD (n= 31) and controls (n = 133). : sFlt-1/PlGF ratio was higher at 16 weeks (30.

Background And Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of adding fetal growth velocity and first trimester maternal biomarkers to baseline screening, for the prediction of small-for-gestational age (SGA) and adverse neonatal outcomes.

Method: A retrospective cohort study was conducted of singleton pregnancies in the Maastricht University Medical Centre between 2012 and 2016. The biomarkers PAPP-A, β-hCG, PlGF, and sFlt-1 were measured at 11-13 weeks of gestational age (GA) and two fetal growth scans were performed (18-22 and 30-34 weeks of GA).
