[Concentration of lipids and lipoproteins in serum of pregnant women with primary hypertension].

The tests have been conducted on 44 women in 3rd trimester of pregnancy. 30 of them were the women with a normal course of pregnancy, and 14 were the ones with the primary hypertension. The blood serum has been tested for the concentration of triglycerides, phospholipids, total cholesterol, HDL and LDL- cholesterol, alpha, beta and pre-beta lipoprotein fractions. The results have been calculated statistically. It has been found that the increase in the concentration of triglycerides (p < 0.001), and the beta lipoprotein fraction (p < 0.004) was essentially higher in the women with the primary hypertension in 3rd trimester of complicated pregnancy in comparison to those values observed in the healthy pregnant women. At the same time a lower concentration of alpha lipoproteins (p < 0.02) has been observed in the group of the pregnant with the primary hypertension. Differences between the concentration of other parameters have not obtained statistical significance.
