Placental growth factor level is correlated with intrapartum fetal heart rate findings
ObjectiveHere, we tested the correlation between maternal placental growth factor (PlGF) and fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring findings.

Association of angiogenic factors (placental growth factor and soluble FMS-like tyrosine kinase-1) in preeclamptic women of African ancestry comorbid with HIV infection
BackgroundPreeclampsia is a significant cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, particularly in low- and middle-income countries like...
