  • p-value 0.01 as the threshold to select metabolomics analytes.
  • Two panels were constructed for early stage PE and late stage PE identification, respectively.
  • the panel for early stage PE identification consisted of the following metabolomics analytes: Argininosuccinic Acid, Aspartate, Methionine, Free Carnitine, C16-Carnitine, C18:1 -Carnitine, C2-Carnitine, C4-Carnitine, C5-Carnitine, C6 DC- Carnitine, Succinylacetone, d 18: 1-16:0 Ceramide, d 18: 1-18:0 Ceramide, Cholesterol, Cortisol, d22:5 Fatty Acid, d20:5 Fatty Acid, d20:3 Fatty Acid, d24:0 Fatty Acid, d18:2 Fatty Acid, d18:3 Fatty Acid, d14:0 Fatty Acid, d18:1 Fatty Acid, d16:0 Fatty Acid, d16:1 F
  • the panel for late stage PE identification consisted of the following metabolomics analytes: 5-Oxoproline, Aspartate, C14:1 -Carnitine, C2- Carnitine, C6 DC-Carnitine, Succinylacetone, Creatinine, d18:1-16:0 Ceramide, d18:1- 18:0 Ceramide, d20:5 Fatty Acid, d20:3 Fatty Acid, d24:0 Fatty Acid, d18:2 Fatty Acid, d18:3 Fatty Acid, d14:0 Fatty Acid, d18:1 Fatty Acid, d16:0 Fatty Acid, d16:1 Fatty Acid, d18:0 Fatty Acid.
  • the Random Forest based models stratified all subjects into two levels of risk for progression. For the early stage model for which 26 targeted metabolomics profiles were used as predictors, a subject was classified as normal or PE at early stage. For the late stage model for which 19 targeted metabolomics profiles were used as predictors, a subject was classified as normal or PE at late stage.
  • the risk scores of having PE were calculated by the model ( Figure 4 for early stage PE model and Figure 5 for late stage PE model). We use 0.5 as the cutoff threshold for both early stage PE model and late stage PE model.
  • the c statistic of the model was both 1 for differentiating early stage PE subjects ( Figure 6) and late stage PE subjects ( Figure 7) from normal control subjects, in testing cohort.
  • Unsupervised hierarchical clustering analysis was applied to the targeted metaboiomics profiles to visually depict the association of the PE outcomes with the abundance patterns of these metaboiomics profiles ( Figure 8 for early stage PE and Figure 9 for late stage PE). This analysis demonstrated two major clusters reflecting PE (early or late) and normal.
  • the error rate (miss-classification rate) of the unsupervised clustering is 0% for both early state PE and late stage PE, which reinforcing the effectiveness of metaboiomics panels for PE assessment.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des marqueurs de pré-éclampsie, des panels de marqueurs de pré-éclampsie, et des méthodes d'obtention d'une représentation du niveau des marqueurs de pré-éclampsie pour un échantillon, sur la base d'un profilage métabolique de petites molécules. Ces compositions et méthodes sont utilisables dans un certain nombre d'applications dont, par exemple, le diagnostic de la pré-éclampsie, le pronostic de la pré-éclampsie, la surveillance d'un sujet atteint de pré-éclampsie, et la détermination d'un traitement de la pré-éclampsie. L'invention concerne en outre des systèmes, des dispositifs et des trousses associés, utilisables dans la mise en pratique desdites méthodes.
