Özet

Objective: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is among the most commonly researched topics in perinatology. Fetuin-A (FA), a multifunctional protein, has roles in the inhibition of ectopic calcification and the regulation of serum glucose levels. Reduced FA is an indicator of inflammation. This study was performed to investigate the potential role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of early- and late-onset PE by measuring FA levels.
