PlGF and the sFlt\u20101\/PlGF ratio did not predict the composite outcome. sFlt\u20101 showed a modest predictive performance for thrombocytopenia (AUC, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.56\u20130.81), elevated liver enzymes (AUC, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.59\u20130.78), and renal impairment (AUC, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.60\u20130.83).
