The Society for Maternal Fetal Medicine published an abstract containing top-line results from the PRIME study, a research project focused on improving neonatal outcomes through prematurity risk assessment and clinical interventions. The detailed findings of the study are expected to be presented later, followed by an in-depth discussion during a conference call and live webcast hosted by Sera Prognostics.

In relation to financials, Sera Prognostics reported a decrease in net revenue to $29,000 from $42,000, and an increase in operating expenses by 8% to $8.9 million, resulting in a 10% increase in net loss to $7.9 million.
