Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein screening, maternal weight, and detection efficiency.

J N Macri, R V Kasturi, D A Krantz, K E Koch.   

Abstract

Various methods of adjusting maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein levels based on maternal weight have been recommended in order to more appropriately assign risk in maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein screening. These adjustments may, however, result in a larger proportion of pregnancies designated as having increased risk and reduction in detection accuracy.
