Could This Blood Test Predict Preemies?

Scientists just found that certain tiny RNAs (tsRNAs) floating in a pregnant woman’s blood could be early warning signs for preterm labor. Two of these tsRNAs were way higher in women who went into labor too soon, and one (tsRNA1) even messes with placenta cells, making things riskier for mom and baby. If this pans out, we might have a simple blood test to spot preterm birth risk way earlier than ever before! #PregnancyScience #PretermBirth #Biomarkers #WomensHealth #MedicalBreakthrough #Health
