Circulating SPINT1 is a biomarker of pregnancies with poor placental function and fetal growth restriction

There are no reliable tests for placental insufficiency, which can lead to fetal growth restriction and stillbirth. Here the authors demonstrate that low levels of circulating SPINT1 are associated to low birthweight, and several ultrasound and neonatal anthropomorphic indicators of placental insuff...
