Figure 1 Circulating levels of thrombopoietin in miscarriage cases and controls of the study sample by week of gestation at serum collection. A higher level of thrombopoietin in women whose pregnancy resulted in miscarriage compared to those that did not is evident starting at approximately 8 weeks of gestation. Y-axis label: Picograms/mL; X-axis label: Gestational age (weeks). ▪ Cases;—Trendline (cubic) in cases; ▴Controls;----Trendline (cubic) in controls.
