Glycosylated fibronectin improves first‐trimester prediction of pre‐eclampsia
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 ...

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
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.
