Fox News
Scientists say the placenta can provide key signals for whether a woman will develop pregnancy complications beginning as early as the first trimester.
The placenta, which has been referred to by other researchers as a so-called "black box" of pregnancy, is responsible for providing the fetus with nutrients and oxygen provided by the mother and for removing fetal waste products. The team, which published their research in Nature Communications Biology, looked at proteins made by the placenta and compared them to blood samples from uneventful pregnancies and those with gestational diabetes.
