Supplementary Material for: Establishing a Differential Marker Profile for Pregnancy Complications Near Delivery

Objective: The aim of this work was to define a differential marker profile for pregnancy complications near delivery. Methods: We enrolled pregnant women who were referred to the outpatient pregnancy clinic of the University Medical Center, Ljubljana, Slovenia, due to symptoms of pregnancy complications and women with a history of pregnancy complications attending the high-risk hospital clinic for close surveillance. They were evaluated for prior risk and were tested for biophysical and biochemical markers at the time of enrolment. Biochemical markers included the pro- and anti-angiogenic markers, along with additional previously reported markers of potential value, all tested by various formats of immuno-diagnostics. Biophysical markers included blood pressure, sonographic markers, and EndoPAT. Statistical differences were determined with Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests for continuous parameters, and Pearson χ2 for categorical values. p Results: The cohort included 125 pregnant patients, 31 developed preeclampsia (PE) alone (13 were Conclusion: Arterial stiffness can serve as a major marker to differentiate PE (with/without IUGR) from pure IUGR near delivery. TNFα can differentiate iatrogenic early PTD from other complications of pregnancy and term IUGR.
