The addition of NT-proBNP assessment improves the short-term prediction of delivery as a result of PE compared with sFlt-1/PlGF ratio alone, when the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio is > 38. This finding should be considered in future research on the assessment of short-term risk of delivery as a result of PE. Copyright © 2018 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
