The laboratory tests showed elevated levels of 24-hour proteinuria, a nondiagnostic result for the ratio of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1) to placental growth factor (PlGF: a marker that can be used to rule out short-term preeclampsia in women in whom the syndrome is suspected clinically), and bile acids levels above the normal range (Zeisler et al., 2016). The gene discussed is PGF; the disease is preeclampsia.
