Immune profiling in patients with recurrent miscarriage

Recurrent miscarriage (RM) affects about 1–3% of all women during their reproductive years (Carrington et al., 2005). According to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, and the German Society for Gynecology and Obstetrics there are several established risk factors concerning RM: parental genetic disorders, uterine anatomical malformations, endocrine dysfunction, and hemostatic disorders (Carrington et al., 2005; Franssen, 2005; Porcu et al., 2000; Rodger et al., 2008; Toth et al., 2010).
