Exploring free pregnancy associated plasma protein a (fPAPP-A) as a biomarker in early pregnancy
Investigating fPAPP-A presence and concentration directly in first trimester serum has not been done previously. This study report lower fPAPP-A values than anticipated from prior enzymatic studies of fPAPP-A. fPAPP-A was not superior to PAPP-A as a first trimester biomarker in this dataset.
