    摘要: Described herein are methods, materials, kits, devices, and assays for use in screening, detection, and treatment of diabetes, including diabetes mellitus and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The amount of a plurality of metabolic markers present in a test sample obtained from the subject is measured, followed by comparing the amount of the metabolic markers present in the test sample to reference levels of the markers; and identifying a subject as susceptible to, or as having, diabetes when the amount of each of the measured markers present in the test sample is increased or decreased relative to the reference levels. Also provided is a method of treating diabetes in a subject when the amount of each of the measured markers present in the test sample is increased or decreased relative to the reference levels.

    摘要: A method of determining suitability of a pregnant woman to be a candidate for induction of labor can include: obtaining a vaginal fluid sample from a pregnant woman; contacting the vaginal fluid sample with a PAMG-1 antibody that binds with PAMG-1; detecting whether the PAMG-1 antibody binds with PAMG-1 in the vaginal fluid sample to form a PAMG-1-antibody complex; and providing the determination of suitability for induction of labor to the pregnant woman. When the PAMG-1-antibody complex forms, the pregnant woman is determined to be in a condition that is not suitable for induction of labor because PAMG-1 is detected in the vaginal sample. When the PAMG-1-antibody complex does not form, the pregnant woman is determined to be in a condition that is suitable to be a candidate for induction of labor because the PAMG-1 is not detected in the vaginal sample.
