750 Constitutional reciprocal translocation t(9;22) and pregnancy

Abstract

nonobese women (Table) and occurred in 50% of patients with CL <20mm in both groups. CL performed equally well as a predictor for sPTB <34 weeks in obese and nonobese women (Figure). The sensitivity and specificity of CL <20mm for sPTB <34 weeks did not differ between groups. CONCLUSION: Obese women are at higher risk for sPTB prior to 34, 28, and 24 weeks. This risk appears to be independent of midtrimester CL, suggesting that the etiology of PTB in obese patients may not be cervical insufficiency.
