Abstract:
Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum placental growth factor(PLGF)/soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1),combined with the placental three-dimensional energy Doppler index(3D-PDI)in preeclampsia(PE).Methods From January 2021 to December 2022,120 pregnant women with PE risk factors were selected and followed up until 1 week after delivery.Serum PLGF and sFlt-1 levels were measured at routine prenatal check-ups at 14 to 20 weeks gestation.The PLGF/sFlt-1 ratio was calculated,and placental 3D-PDI was detected by ultrasound,including the vascularization index(VI),blood flow index(FI),and vascularization-blood flow index(VFI).Based on whether PE occurred after 20 weeks of pregnancy,cases were divided into PE(55 cases)and control groups(65 cases).The PE group was further divided into mild PE(35 cases)and severe PE groups(20 cases)based on the severity of the di-sease.The differences in PLGF/sFlt-1 and 3D-PDI between the groups were compared in terms of a statistical analysis of the correlation between PLGF,sFlt-1,and 3D-PDI.The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was plotted,and the predictive value of each index on PE alone or in combination was analyzed.Results The systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),24 h protein-uria level,preterm birth rate,NICU admission rate,and preconception BMI in the PE group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The two groups had no differences in age,gestational age,pregnancy history,and fertility history(P＞0.05).The serum PLGF/sFlt-1 of the PE group was lower than that of the control group,and the serum PLGF/sFlt-1 of the severe group was lower than that of the mild group(P＜0.05).The 3D-PDI index of the PE group was lower than that of the control group,and the 3D-PDI index of the severe group was lower than that of the mild group(P＜0.05).Pearson's correlation analysis indicated that PLGF and VFI were signifi-cantly positively correlated(P＜0.01),and sFlt-1 was significantly negatively correlated with VFI(P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis showed that PLGF/sFlt-1,VI,FI,and VFI all had predictive value for PE and the value of VI,FI,and VFI jointly predicted PE,and was higher than that of various parameters(AUC = 0.951).Serum PLGF/sFlt-1,VI,FI,and VFI combined predicted the highest value(AUC=0.987).Conclusion In patients with PE,serum PLGF,sFlt-1,and placental VFI are significantly correlated.Serum PLGF/sFlt-1,placenta VI,FI,and VFI are reduced in early pregnancy,and the combined application of the four indicators has the highest efficacy in predicting PE,providing a possible reference for the early clinical screening or prediction of PE.
