Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

GDM poses significant risks for adverse pregnancy and long-term cardiometabolic complications for the mother. However, current early detection methods remain limited. Here, we isolated placental sEVs from the plasma of control and GDM pregnancies and employed mass spectrometry to identify potential lipid biomarkers predictive of GDM onset. We challenged endothelial cells with presymptomatic GDM sEVs and assess their impact on maternal microvascular mitochondria. Our findings show that GDM placental sEVs exhibit a distinct lipid profile, with potential for GDM prediction. We demonstrate that presymptomatic GDM placental sEVs disrupt endothelial mitochondrial homeostasis by promoting fission, mitophagy, and impairing OXPHOS, particularly in those GDM pregnancies that later develop preeclampsia. Clinically, our results not only advocate for a change in current practice with earlier GDM screening, as mitochondrial dysfunction occurs in the maternal system well before clinical symptoms emerge but also suggest that placental sEVs may drive the transition from GDM to preeclampsia.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
