Objective: We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of uterine artery Doppler index and nuchal translucency (NT) measurement in determining perinatal problems in patients diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum (HEG). Material and methods: We included 80 pregnant women between the ages of 19–40 years with a singleton, noncomplicated pregnancy, no systemic disease, and no structural and chromosomal disorders in the fetus, who were admitted to our hospital which is a tertiary center with a large patient population in the region, between October 2015 and October 2016 in this study. Further, two group were formed as 40 pregnant women with the diagnosis of HEG (group 1) and 40 pregnant women for control group (group 2). Age, body mass index (BMI), educational status,pregnancy history (live birth, miscarriages), smoking, alcohol consumption, substance use, last menstrual period, serum pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), free beta-human chorionic gonadotropin, (free ß-hCG), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) levels, nuchal translucency (NT), and uterine artery Doppler measurement values were recorded. The data between two groups were compared. Results: The education level of the group 1 was found higher (p = 0.001). The frequency of smoking in group 1 (n = 18; 45%) was found significantly higher than group 2 (n = 3; 7.5%) (p = 0.001). In group 1, uterine artery Doppler pulsatility index (PI) and resistance index (RI) values were found higher than group 2 (p = 0.026 and 0.024, respectively). Conclusion: The uterine artery Doppler PI, RI values measured at 20–24 weeks in patients with HEG were statistically significantly higher than those without HEG.

The objective was to determine whether a combination of serum micro RNA-210 level and uterine artery Doppler can predict preeclampsia in pregnant women at 16–24 weeks gestation. A prospective observational study conducted in singleton pregnant women at 16–24 weeks of gestation who had prenatal care at the King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand between 2017 and 2018. Uterine artery Doppler ultrasound and blood testing for serum micro RNA-210 were performed. Pregnancy outcomes were recorded. Optimal cut-off for uterine artery pulsatility index (PI) and serum micro RNA-210 were obtained to calculate the predictive values for preeclampsia. Data from 443 participants were analyzed. Twenty-two cases developed preeclampsia (5.0%) and seven of these preeclamptic cases had early-onset preeclampsia (1.6%). Pregnant women with preeclampsia had higher mean PI of the uterine artery (1.34 ± 0.52 vs 0.98 ± 0.28, p = 0.004), higher detection rates of diastolic notching (45.5% vs 11.2%, p < 0.001), and lower median serum micro RNA-210 level (22.86 vs 795.78, p < 0.001) than pregnant women without preeclampsia. Using abnormal serum micro RNA-210 level, abnormal mean PI or uterine artery diastolic notches to predict for preeclampsia, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were 95.5%, 54.9%, 10.0%, and 99.6%, respectively. For early-onset preeclampsia prediction, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were 100.0%, 53.2%, 3.3%, and 100.0%, respectively. This study demonstrated that a combination of serum micro RNA-210 and uterine artery Doppler is effective in predicting preeclampsia in the second trimester.

Background: The uterine artery Doppler has potentials for screening for complications of impaired placentation. The purpose of study was to assess the role of uterine artery color Doppler waveform analysis in second trimester for the prediction of preeclampsia in a high-risk pregnancy between 18-24 weeks of gestation.Methods: 100 women with moderate or high-risk factors for developing preeclampsia reporting to Obstetrics and Gynaecology department of Government Medical College and Hospital, Sector 32, Chandigarh were enrolled for present study. Transabdominal uterine artery doppler measurements was done at 18-24weeks of gestation in these patients. Doppler . The Doppler indices generated automatically from the machine , the Pulsatility Index (PI), Resistance Index (RI) , presence or absence of diastolic notch and S/D Ratio were recorded, and average was calculated.Results: Out of 100 patients there were 46 primigravidas with no additional risk factors, 22 pateints with two or more risk factors and there were no patients who had three or more risk factors in present study population. Preeclampsia is seen more commonly in primigravida and primigravida is considered as moderate risk factor for preeclampsia. It was found that an elevated second trimester uterine artery RI was significantly associated with developing preeclampsia later in pregnancy. The sensitivity and specificity of uterine artery Doppler velocimetry were found to be 84% and 55% respectively. Receiver operator characteristics (ROC) curves were created to demonstrate the prognostic value of RI and PI of uterine artery doppler indices at 18-24 weeks of gestation for the development preeclampsia. In addition, there were statistically significant positive correlations between mean RI of uterine artery doppler study and patients who developed preeclampsia. With a sensitivity of 84.21% it could identify 31% of the cases of preeclampsia at a false positive rate of 44.4%.Conclusions: Uterine artery doppler study can be used as a predictor of moderate strength for preeclampsia.
