Background: Pre-eclampsia is a multisystem disorder of pregnancy which is characterized by hypertension with proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation in previously normotensive and non proteinuric pregnant women. Pre-eclampsia associated with intrauterine growth retardation, preterm birth, maternal and perinatal death. Serum creatinine and uric acid has been shown to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of the disease and often precede clinical manifestations. This study compares the serum creatinine and uric acid in pre -eclampsia case and normal pregnant women and to assess its role in pre-eclampsia.Methods: 158 patients of which 79 pre-eclampsia (cases) and 79 (controls) were selected randomly and were matched with their gestational age in patient who Attending ANC clinic at Department of Obstretics and Gynecology in March 2016 to August 2017. Lipid profile was estimated by the Randox imola is a compact fully automated clinical chemistry analyser.Results: Authors observed that pre-eclampsia is more common in young age pregnant women with low socioeconomic status with strenuous activities. The mean age was 24.51±3.707 years. The mean serum creatinine and urice acid value is analysed in pre-eclampia cases and compared with control group showing significantly increase (p<0.0001).Conclusions: Young age, nullyparity, low socio economic status specially labour occupation, with derangment of Serum creatinine in pregnant women were found to be more prone to develop pre-eclampsia. Proper history tacking, examination and estimation of serum creatinine and uric acid may be helpful for early diagnosis and management of pre–eclampsia in order to prevent fetal and maternal complications especially in nulliparous women.
Objectives: (1) To evaluate and compare the thyroid profile and lipid profile in preeclampsia in a normotensive pregnant female in the third trimester of pregnancy. (2) To estimate and compare serum uric acid and serum creatinine in preeclampsia in normotensive pregnant females. Methods: In the present study, 154 patients, of which 79 preeclampsia (cases) and 75 (controls), were selected randomly and matched with their gestational age in patients who attended an ANC clinic at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, NSCB Medical College, Jabalpur, from March 2016 to August 2017. All patients were evaluated for their lipid profile, thyroid profile, serum uric acid, and serum creatinine. The study includes patient’s specific detailed clinical history, physical examination findings, and a report of relevant investigations recorded from the patient who presented with pre-eclampsia and normotensive pregnant female attending the ANC Clinic of N.S.C.B. Medical College, Jabalpur. Results: The most common age group for preeclampsia was 20–24 years. Preeclampsia was most common in the nullipara as compared to the multipara. Pre-eclampsia cases commonly occur in low-socioeconomic and rural areas. In this study, pre-eclamptic women showed higher serum concentrations of total cholesterol (221.60±22.55), low density lipoprotein (LDL) (134.44±16.96), Very LDL (48.48±6.88) and Triglyceride (243.50±32.33) when compared to normotensive women, which was statistically significant. In this study, a statistically significant decrease in HDLC (34.55±5.37) was observed in pre-eclamptic women. An increase in serum creatinine was observed in women with pre-eclampsia. The mean serum creatinine level was (1.21±0.47). Conclusion: Our study concludes that nulliparous and low-socio-economic women had a higher risk of pre-eclampsia. Maternal age between 20 and 24 years are more prone to develop pre-eclampsia. Serum uric acid levels are significantly higher in pre-eclampsia patients and could be a useful indicator of maternal and fetal complications in hypertensive patients.
Introduction: Pre-eclampsia is a multisystem disorder of pregnancy which is characterized by hypertension with proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation in previously normotensive and non proteinuric pregnant women. Pre-eclampsia associated with intrauterine growth retardation, preterm birth, maternal and perinatal death. Dyslipidaemia has been shown to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of the disease and often precede linical manifestations. Objective: To compare the serum lipid profile in pre-eclampsia case and normal pregnant women and to assess its role in pre-eclampsia. Material and Method: 158 patients of which 79 pre-eclampsia (cases) and 79 (controls) were selected randomly and were matched with their gestational age in patient who Attending ANC clinic at Department of obstetrics and genecology in March 2016 to August 2017. Lipid profile was estimated by the Randoximola is a compact fully automated clinical chemistry analyser. Result: We observed that pre-eclampsia is more common in young age pregnant women with low socioeconomic status with strenuous activities. The mean age was 24.51±3.707 years. The mean cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL,VLDL, value is analysed with control group showing significantly increase (p<0.0001) and HDL value significantly decreasedin pre-eclampsia patient in comparison to the normal control group (p<0.0001). Conclusion: Young age, nulliparity, low socioeconomic status specially labour occupation, dyslipidaemic pregnant women were found to be more prone to develop pre-eclampsia. Proper history tacking, examination and estimation of lipid profile may be helpful forearly diagnosis and management of pre-eclampsia in order to prevent fetal and maternal complications especially in nulliparous women.
