Several studies have tested the diagnostic ability of PlGF for women with suspected preeclampsia [6, 11–13]; the PELICAN study reported 96 and 98% sensitivity and negative predictive value, respectively, using PlGF <5th percentile, to predict confirmed preeclampsia and subsequent delivery within 14 days among women presenting with suspected preeclampsia before 35 + 0 weeks of gestation [11]. Here, PGF is linked to preeclampsia.
