Results from this study4

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured4

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01HumanEndogenous levelObservational studyOther

    In pregnant women, plasma kisspeptin‑10 was lower in preeclamptic groups than in normotensive controls.

    In plain wordsIn pregnant women with preeclampsia, the body's own kisspeptin‑10 level in plasma was lower than in women without it.

    One hundred women who completed 20 weeks of gestation with singleton pregnancies were divided into 60 peeclamptic and 40 normotensive control women.

    In women with preeclampsia, plasma kisspeptin‑10 level was inversely correlated with disease severity.

    In plain wordsIn women with preeclampsia, lower natural kisspeptin‑10 levels were linked to more severe disease.

  3. 03HumanEndogenous levelObservational studyOther

    In women with preeclampsia, kisspeptin‑10 level correlated directly with estimated fetal weight and birth weight, but inversely in severe preeclampsia in the second trimester.

    In plain wordsIn women with preeclampsia, natural kisspeptin‑10 levels were linked to fetal weight, mostly in the same direction, but the reverse in severe second-trimester disease.

    Summary
    Its level directly correlated with estimated fetal weight in utero during both trimesters in patients with severe preeclampsia and with fetal birth weight in patients with mild preeclampsia, whereas an inverse correlation was observed in those with severe preeclampsia during their second trimester.

    In women with preeclampsia, kisspeptin‑10 level correlated with umbilical artery Doppler indices, directly in severe disease in the second trimester and inversely in mild disease in the third trimester.

    In plain wordsIn women with preeclampsia, natural kisspeptin‑10 levels were linked to blood-flow measures in the umbilical artery, in different directions by severity and trimester.

    Summary
    Kisspeptin-10 level was directly related to the resistance index in the second trimester in patients with severe preeclampsia, while it inversely correlated with the systolic/diastolic ratio and resistance index in the third trimester in patients with mild preeclampsia.
