Filter by:The purpose of this study is to finout whetere uterinae artery flow , PP13 and endogolin levels in the serum and kongo red in the urine can predict preeclamsia toxemia in twin pregnancies.
The investigators intend to perform a large prospective study looking at the predictability of the random urine protein-to-creatinine ratio compared to the gold standard 24-hour urine protein collection. Furthermore, the investigators plan to investigate whether analysis of proteinuria at shorter time intervals (4 and 8 hours) within the overall 24-hour collection period is predictive of the 24-hour sample. Lastly, the investigators plan to determine whether a combination of the random test with a shorter collection interval is comparable to the 24-hour collection.
Women with excess adiposity while pregnant are more likely to develop gestational diabetes and high blood pressure during pregnancy than women of healthy weights. This may occur because overweight and obese pregnant women are less sensitive to insulin and have more inflammation than pregnant women of healthy weights. This study will examine the effect of a nutritional supplement, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), on improving insulin sensitivity and lessening inflammation in overweight and obese pregnant women.
The aim of this study is to confirm that URAPIDIL is as efficient and as safe as NICARDIPINE to correct severe hypertension in pre-eclamptic patients. - efficacy endpoint : mean arterial blood pressure corrected to 105-125 mmHg after 120 min of study drug administration. - safety endpoints : clinical, biological and ultrasound observation for any side effect.All infants will be observed in the neonatology unit (during 48h).
The reason for having a higher incidence of preeclampsia in primiparas may involve angiogenesis imbalance in these patients.
Pre-eclampsia is one of the most common causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to identify pregnant women at risk for pre-eclampsia or other cardiovascular complications at a very early state of the disease, and thereby improve the current method of screening.
A history of preeclampsia is associated with a low plasma volume and higher sympathetic activity. Methyldopa will suppress sympathetic activity to normal values. In this study, the researchers will test that effect on the total cardiovascular balance.
