Assessment of Inflammatory Markers in Preeclampsia

Emerging Role of Endothelial and Inflammatory Markers in Preeclampsia

OBJECTIVES Endothelial disturbance and excess inflammatory response are pathogenic mechanisms in pre-eclampsia (PE). Authors determine the clinical diagnostic role for thrombomodulin (TM), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) as endothelial markers and C-reactive protein (CRP), and interlukin-6 (IL-6) as inflammatory markers when tested independently or in combinations. MATERIALS AND MET...

Serum Inflammatory Markers and Preeclampsia in Type 1 Diabetes

OBJECTIVE Inflammation and endothelial dysfunction have been associated with the immunobiology of preeclampsia (PE), a significant cause of adverse pregnancy outcomes. The prevalence of PE is elevated several fold in the presence of maternal type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Although cross-sectional studies of pregnancies among women without diabetes have shown altered inflammatory markers in th...

Pathogenetic markers in preeclampsia

Markers of inflammation in preeclampsia.

Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) represent terminal products of proteins exposure to free radicals. The aim of this study was to estimate the serum AOPP levels in preeclamptic patients together with ultrasensitive C-reactive protein and anticardiolipin antibodies (ACA) IgG and IgM. 21 women in the third trimester of pregnancy were included in the study--10 women with preeclampsia and ...
