Article Synopsis
- - This study investigated the link between maternal serum TNF-α levels and preeclampsia by comparing 45 preeclamptic women with 45 healthy pregnant women of similar age and gestational stage.
- - Results showed that TNF-α levels were significantly higher in women with preeclampsia, especially those with severe symptoms, and these levels correlated with various health indicators like blood pressure and proteinuria.
- - The research suggests that elevated TNF-α might be crucial in the development of preeclampsia, prompting a recommendation for further studies to confirm these findings through longitudinal monitoring of TNF-α levels during pregnancy.
