Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Propionic Acidemia: A Case‐Report and Review of the Literature
ABSTRACT Propionic acidemia is an inborn error of metabolism involving an enzymatic defect of propionyl‐CoA carboxylase that results in the build‐up of toxic metabolites which can induce metabolic decompensation. Secondary mitochondrial dysfunction in propionic acidemia has been commonly recognized; however, its clinical presentation and management are

Angiogenic Biomarkers and Neonatal Outcomes in Suspected Preeclampsia: Retrospective Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Placental growth factor (PlGF) and soluble fms‐like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt1) are two biomarkers associated with placental function and the sFlt‐1/PlGF ratio is frequently used for risk assessment and prediction of preeclampsia in pregnancy. Objective To assess the association between elevated sFlt‐1/PlGF ratio and adverse neonatal outcomes in
