Maternal Serum Adropin in Placenta Accreta Spectrum

Aim: To compare maternal serum adropin levels in pregnancies complicated by placenta previa and/or placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) with those of healthy pregnant women and to evaluate the diagnostic value of adropin for predicting placental invasion.

Methods:

This cross-sectional study included 84 singleton pregnancies at ≥34 weeks of gestation: 42 women diagnosed with placenta previa and/or PAS and 42 healthy pregnant women who underwent cesarean delivery. Maternal serum adropin levels are measured preoperatively using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Demographic, obstetric, ultrasonographic, and intraoperative findings were recorded. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis is performed to assess the predictive performance of adropin for PAS.
