Lipid profile parameters in normal and preeclampsia complicating pregnancies - A prospective observational study

Abstract: This was an open labeled clinical study to compare the lipid profile in normotensive and hypertensive pregnant women.The study included two groups-50 normotensive and 50 preeclamptic pregnant women in whom fasting blood samples were sent for estimation of serum lipid profile during their third trimester. There was a significant increase (p<0.5) in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol and triglycerides in preeclamptic group compared to normotensive group. There was a significant decrease in HDL … Show more

“…In the current study, VLDL measurements were significantly [P < 0.088] high in the preeclamptic group which may be as a result of high TGs levels causing high entrance of VLDL that carries the endogenous TGs into the circulation. Similar results were seen in the research done via Vani et al [23] In contradiction to results of the present work, Ghodke et al [24] are not capable to expect the incidence of PET, diabetes, and PRL by measuring VLDL-C levels of the mid trimester as the level are within normal concentration.…”
