From: Plasma level of hydroxysteroid (17-β) dehydrogenase 1 in the second trimester is an independent risk factor for predicting preeclampsia after adjusting for the effects of mean blood pressure, bilateral notching and plasma level of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1/placental growth factor ratio

Figure 1

ROC curves of MBP at 16–23 weeks of gestation (a), plasma level of (sFlt-1)/(PlGF) ratio at 19–25 weeks of gestation (b), plasma level of HSD17B1 at 19–25 weeks of gestation (c) for predicting all PE were constructed using 128 normal controls and 30 women who later developed PE. In addition, the ROC curves for predicting all PE by combining BN and MBP (d), by combining BN, MBP and sFlt-1/PlGF ratio (e), and by combining BN, MBP, sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and HSD17B1 (f) were constructed. Arrows show the cutoff values of MBP, sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and the plasma HSD17B1 level in a, b and c; and show the cutoff P-values of the combination models in d, e and f.
