Molecules in blood foretell development of preeclampsia

High levels of two proteins in the blood of pregnant women appear to indicate the subsequent development of preeclampsia, a life-threatening complication of pregnancy, report a team of researchers from the National Institutes of Health and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The proteins, which interfere with the growth and function of blood vessels, also signal the development of high blood p...

Mystery behind Preeclampsia uncovered

Scientists have linked the rise in levels of S-nitrosoalbumin, a naturally occuring chemical found in the blood with Preeclampsia. This dangerous complication of pregnancy affects 10% of all first pregnancies.

Many also begin to excrete protein in their urine. If the condition progresses to eclampsia, potentially life-threatening seizures can result.While doctors can treat the seizures and high blood pressure associated w...

Risk of preeclampsia in pregnant mothers may be inherited

Dutch scientists have found out that the condition of preeclampsia that may cause complications in giving birth may be passed on from mothers to their daughters.// Preeclampsia is a condition that is characterized by high blood pressure, protein in the urine and swelling of hands and feet. This is one of the pregnancy-induced conditions that may cause severe complications to the pregn...

Protein marker to detect early preeclampsia

Professor Brian Brost and Colleagues from Mayo Clinic have found that a sudden increase in HtrA1 protein levels in the blood of pregnant women may indicate that they may be // affected by preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is responsible for causing premature infants and also linked with death or disability for mother and fetus. This new protein marker may be helpful in detecting early preeclam...

Gum Disease Associated With Increased Risk of Preeclampsia

A new study published in the February issue of the Journal of Periodontology, says that chronic periodontal infection does raise the risk of developing preeclampsia in pregnancy. // The results of the study also indicate that preeclamptic mothers have low birth weight babies as compared to women who do not have preeclampsia. "We found that chronic periodontitis was more prevalent in the...
