Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Consecutive patients with singleton pregnancies between 36 and 39 weeks booked at a general obstetric clinic in a regional hospital will be recruited for the study. The obstetric department is a tertiary referral center in the region and part of a university teaching unit which catered to an annual delivery of around 10,000 women. A group of first trimester pregnant women with nearly the same age is recruited as controls.
