Maternal serum AFP (MSAFP) varies by orders of magnitude during the course of a normal pregnancy. MSAFP increases rapidly until about 32 weeks gestation, then decreases gradually. After the pregnancy ends it decreases rapidly, with a half-life of about 5 days. Typically, MSAFP is measured in the beginning of the second trimester (14–16 weeks).
A multiple of the median (MoM) is a measure of how far an individual test result deviates from the median.MoM is commonly used to report the results of medical screening tests, particularly where the results of the individual tests are highly variable.
Having multiple gestations, such as twins, increases MSAFP because each fetus secretes its own AFP Incorrect estimation of gestational age is the most common cause of abnormal MSAFP levels An example of an algorithm for indications for further testing depending on the outcome of non-genetic blood tests including the triple test.

A proteomics analysis software with modules for translational proteomics, glycoproteomics, and biopharma analysis. It includes comprehensive quantitation of thousands of proteins across hundreds of samples using DDA, DIA, PRM or SRM with fully integrated statistics and biological interpretation.
In 1958, James L.S. recognised that umbilical cord blood gas analysis can give an indication of preceding fetal hypoxic stress. [5] It has since become widely accepted that umbilical cord blood gas analysis can provide important information about the past, present and possibly the future condition of the infant. [6]
An SDRF file is a tab-delimited file describing the relationships between samples, arrays, data, and other objects used or produced in a microarray investigation. For simple experimental designs, constructing the SDRF file is straightforward, and even complex loop designs can be expressed in this format.
A PDF file is organized using ASCII characters, except for certain elements that may have binary content. The file starts with a header containing a magic number (as a readable string) and the version of the format, for example %PDF-1.7. The format is a subset of a COS ("Carousel" Object Structure) format. [24]
