Abstract
Presymptomatic prediction of preeclampsia (PE) is crucial to enable early prophylactic treatment. Current screening tools are either complex or lack predictive value. We recently demonstrated that cell-free DNA methylation can be leveraged to predict early-onset PE in 57% at a 10% false positive rate. Importantly, this minimally invasive screening test can be implemented as an add-on to current widespread noninvasive prenatal aneuploidy screening. Here, we highlight the pitfalls and promising prospects of this research.
