The aim of this study was to determine the levels of plasma pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in pre-eclampsia and their association with the mean arterial blood pressure (MAP).
Sixty-seven women with pre-eclampsia symptoms were matched with 56 normal pregnant controls for gestational age, maternal age and parity. Both of the groups were third trimester. PAPP-A and CRP were measured in serum using chemiluminescence assay and nephelometry, respectively.
Maternal serum levels of PAPP-A and CRP were increased in women with pre-eclampsia compared to controls. There were significant correlations between MAP and CRP (r = 0.372, P = 0.002) and MAP and PAPP-A parameters (r = 0.301, P = 0.013) in pregnancies complicated with pre-eclampsia. PAPP-A had no correlation with CRP in patients with pre-eclampsia and in normotensive pregnant women.
We found higher levels of PAPP-A and CRP and the presence of a good correlation between CRP and MAP in pre-eclampsia.
本研究旨在测定子痫前期患者血浆妊娠相关血浆蛋白-A(PAPP-A)和C反应蛋白(CRP)水平及其与平均动脉压(MAP)的相关性。
选取67例有子痫前期症状的孕妇,按照孕周、产妇年龄及产次与56例正常孕妇对照组进行匹配。两组均处于孕晚期。分别采用化学发光法和比浊法测定血清中的PAPP-A和CRP。
与对照组相比,子痫前期患者母体血清中PAPP-A和CRP水平升高。在合并子痫前期的妊娠中,MAP与CRP(r = 0.372,P = 0.002)以及MAP与PAPP-A参数(r = 0.301,P = 0.013)之间存在显著相关性。子痫前期患者及血压正常的孕妇中,PAPP-A与CRP无相关性。
我们发现子痫前期患者PAPP-A和CRP水平较高,且CRP与MAP之间存在良好的相关性。
