No evidence for lipid peroxidation in severe preeclampsia

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2001
This study was undertaken to address the role of oxidative stress in preeclampsia.We measured urinary 8,12-iso-iPF(2alpha)-VI, a chemically stable, free-radical catalyzed product, in a case control study of severe preeclampsia nested within the trial of Calcium for Preeclampsia Prevention.

Severe preeclampsia superimposed on polyarteritis nodosa

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1996
A patient with a history of drug abuse and histologically diagnosed hepatitis B-related polyarteritis nodosa was admitted for severe hypertension. After a cesarean section because of worsening of her clinical status with severe proteinuria and edema, she improved dramatically. No sign of acute polyarteritis nodosa occurred.

Central and peripheral hemodynamics in severe preeclampsia

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1996
Background. Doppler velocimetry, a new tool for measuring blood flow, vascular resistance, and central hemodynamics can be applied to monitor those patients at risk and provide therapeutic concepts for preeclampsia. This study was designed to use a Doppler velocimetry stud to correlate the relationship between central hemodynamics, uteroplacental ...

Antiprothrombin autoantibodies in severe preeclampsia and abortion

The American Journal of Medicine, 2001
We examined the levels of autoantibodies against prethrombin-1 and fragment-1 in pregnant women to determine the type of autoantibodies that were associated with severe preeclampsia or spontaneous abortion.We measured autoantibodies bound to prothrombin, prethrombin-1, and fragment-1 by using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 12 healthy ...

Elevated circulating thrombomodulin in severe preeclampsia

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1993
A relationship between serum thrombomodulin and preeclampsia was investigated. In women with severely preeclamptic pregnancies, serum thrombomodulin levels were found to be significantly elevated as compared with those of matched control subjects (p < 0.005). Serum thrombomodulin levels correlated positively with serum creatinine (r = 0.854, p < 0.0001)

Severe Preeclampsia-Maternal and Fetal Outcome

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension. Part B: Hypertension in Pregnancy, 1982
Ninety patients with severe preeclampsia were reviewed. There was one maternal mortality and two patients who developed pulmonary edema. The corrected perinatal mortality rate was 143/100. Epidural anesthesia did not adversely affect fetal outcome. Perinatal morbidity and mortality was mainly related to the development of neonatal respiratory distress ...

Preeclampsia in Twin Pregnancy‐Severity and Pathogenesis

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1987
The incidence of preeclampsia in a consecutive series of 642 twin pregnancies was 25.9% compared with 9.7% in singleton pregnancies (p less than 0.001); in primiparas it was 35.2% and in multiparas 20.4% (p less than 0.001). Preeclampsia in twin pregnancies was more commonly of early onset (p less than 0.001) and the maternal disease more severe as ...

Urinary Sediment Changes in Severe Preeclampsia

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1991
We analyzed the urinary sediment of 30 patients with severe preeclampsia every 4 hours during early labor, delivery, and the postpartum period. Fifteen normal control patients were also followed in a similar fashion. No casts were noticed in the urine samples of the control group. However, the urinary sediment of preeclamptic patients revealed the same

Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis in a patient with severe preeclampsia

Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2000
A multigravida patient with polyarthralgia and eruptions on the head and fingers was seen at 6 weeks' gestation. No histological examination was performed before the current pregnancy. She developed severe early onset preeclampsia associated with swelling of the knees and increased cutaneous nodules, biopsies of which revealed multicentric ...
