Glycosylated fibronectin improves first‐trimester prediction of pre‐eclampsia

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 512-521, October 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether maternal serum glycosylated fibronectin (GlyFn) level in the first trimester increases the sensitivity of the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) triple test, which incorporates mean arterial pressure, uterine artery pulsatility index and placental growth factor, when screening for pre‐eclampsia (PE) in an Asian ...

Value of cervical electrical impedance spectroscopy to predict spontaneous preterm delivery in asymptomatic women: the ECCLIPPx prospective cohort study

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 293-302, August 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT Objectives Preterm birth (PTB) accounts for two‐thirds of deaths of structurally normal babies and is associated with substantial lifetime healthcare costs. Prevention of PTB remains limited by the modest accuracy of prediction methods, namely transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) cervical length (CL) measurement and quantitative cervicovaginal fetal ...

Collagen VI and Hyaluronan: The Common Role in Breast Cancer

BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Collagen VI and hyaluronan are widely distributed extracellular matrix macromolecules that play a crucial role in tissue development and are highly expressed in cancers. Both hyaluronan and collagen VI are upregulated in breast cancer, generating a microenvironment that promotes tumour progression and metastasis.

Adsorção de fibronectina a arcabouços de polihidroxibutirato aplicáveis à engenharia óssea [PDF]

Polímeros, 2009
Fibronectina sérica humana foi adicionada à superfície de arcabouços de polihidroxibutirato (PHB) a fim de otimizar a adesão de osteoblastos humanos (HOB). Visando a criar sítios para a imobilização de fibronectina (FN), os arcabouços foram previamente tratados por meio de reação com etilenodiamina.

Intermanufacturer assessment of diagnostic performance of angiogenic ratio vs glycosylated fibronectin in women with suspected pre‐eclampsia

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 620-625, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the diagnostic performance of different manufacturers' immunoassays for the soluble fms‐like tyrosine kinase‐1 (sFlt‐1)‐to‐placental growth factor (PlGF) ratio with that of a point‐of‐care (PoC) test for glycosylated fibronectin (GlyFn) in women with suspected pre‐eclampsia (PE).
