Placental alkaline phosphatase types were studied in 435 samples from Punjab (India). A comparison between women with normal and complicated obstetric histories revealed a statistically significant associations between the Pl1 alleles and higher survival rate of the fetus. The Pl2 and Pl3 alleles were found to be associated with higher rates of fetal loss and various complications of pregnancy.
