Abstract

BACKGROUND: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) occurs in 10% of pregnancies worldwide. Placenta dysfunction, as one of the most common causes of FGR, is associated with various poor perinatal outcomes. The main objectives of this study were to screen potential diagnostic biomarkers for FGR and to evaluate the function of immune cell infiltration in the process of FGR.
