PGF and thyroiditis: Maternal thyroid function tests were established every month throughout pregnancy, and angiogenic placental factors, pro-angiogenic placental growth factor (PlGF); two anti-angiogenic factors, soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (sFlt-1) and soluble endoglin (sEng); and placental hormones, estradiol, progesterone, and hCG, were determined during each trimester.
