Abstract:Objective To investigate the application of screening lupus anticoagulant (LA), homocysteine (Hcy) and folic acid (FA) in recurrent spontaneous abortion pregnant women with unknown causes. Methods A total of 89 recurrent spontaneous abortion patients with unknown causes were enrolled in the URSA group, while another 60 non-pregnant healthy women were selected in the control group. Plasma levels of LA, Hcy, ACA and FA were measured. Results peripheral concentration of LA, Hcy and ACA increased while FA decreased significantly in URSA group when compared with control group (P < 0.05). Concentration of LA was positively correlated with Hcy in URSA (P < 0.05). Conclusion LA, Hcy and ACA may be promising diagnostic biomarkers for early discovery of URSA.
