Abstract
Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) represents a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by microvascular thrombosis and end-organ damage. Pregnancy-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (p-TMA) has emerged as a distinct clinical entity with unique diagnostic challenges. Identifying the specific form of p-TMA is critical for appropriate and timely management. This review offers a comprehensive overview of the various forms of thrombotic microangiopathies associated with pregnancy, highlighting our current understanding of their pathophysiology and the evolving landscape of diagnosis and treatment for each.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces is a leading interdisciplinary journal that brings together chemists, engineers, physicists, and biologists to explore the development and utilization of newly-discovered materials and interfacial processes for specific applications. Our journal has experienced remarkable growth since its establishment in 2009, both in terms of the number of articles published and the impact of the research showcased. We are proud to foster a truly global community, with the majority of published articles originating from outside the United States, reflecting the rapid growth of applied research worldwide.
