Withstanding the test of time: Morning versus afternoon/evening urine protein-to-creatinine ratios in preeclampsia.

Objective: There are mixed findings regarding time preference for measuring spot urine protein to creatinine ratios (UPCR) in renal patients but no such literature among pregnant patients. We compare AM versus PM measurements for UPCR among pregnant patients with preeclampsia.

Study Design: This retrospective study included 163 patients diagnosed with preeclampsia.

Comparison of process outcomes, clinical symptoms and laboratory values between patients with antepartum preeclampsia, antepartum with persistent postpartum preeclampsia, and new onset postpartum preeclampsia.

Objective: There is limited literature on postpartum preeclampsia for process outcomes, clinical symptoms, and laboratory values.

Method: Retrospective study comparing 3 groups of antepartum preeclampsia without postpartum preeclampsia (APNP; n = 43), antepartum preeclampsia with persistent postpartum preeclampsia (APYP; n = 59), and new onset postpartum preeclampsia (NEWYP; n = 18).

Results: For process outcomes, NEWYP had higher odds for readmission as compared to APYP [OR: 5.
