Our study demonstrated higher rate of complicated pregnancies in association with metabolic syndrome compared to the control group. In addition, we started a prospective study in 2007, using LMWH therapy to prevent thromboplastic and atherosclerotic effects of the metabolic syndrome. The study is planned to be reported in 2010 to assess the effect of LMWH therapy on the outcome of pregnancies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
