Unlabelled: Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-specific syndrome that occurs in a previously normotensive woman. Some data suggested that the activation parameters of platelets in preeclampsia. The aim of this study is to determine whether the levels of GPIbα and GPIIb for patients with preeclampsia were enhanced after cesarean section. In this study, detecting levels of GPIbα and GPIIb by flow cytometry (FCM). The venous blood of 48 severe preeclampsia women, 16 mild preeclampsia and 22 normotensive women, were collected before operation and 72 hours after the operation. Blood samples were obtained also from 20 non-pregnant women.
Results: The level of GPIbα of the normotensive pregnancy was lower than the control group, but there was no significance (P > 0.05). The level of GPIbα of the severe preeclampsia group was much lower than other groups (P < 0.01). In the severe preeclampsia group, the level of GPIbα of postoperative patients was higher than preoperative patients (P < 0.01). There was no significance of GPIIb levels between each group (P > 0.05). In conclusion, GPIbα was an important index of reflecting the change of severe preeclampsia. Detecting the levels of GPIbα plays an important role in observing the development of this disease and guiding clinical treatment.

Preeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy-related syndrome, has motivated extensive research to understand its pathophysiology and develop early diagnostic methods. 'Omic' technologies, focusing on genes, mRNA, proteins, and metabolites, have revolutionized biological system studies. Urine emerges as an ideal non-invasive specimen for omics analysis, offering accessibility, easy collection, and stability, making it valuable for identifying biomarkers.

Background: Hypertension is the most common primary diagnosis associated with postpartum readmissions within 42 days of delivery hospitalization. In the United States, nearly half of the cases of eclampsia, a severe form of preeclampsia, develop during the postpartum period, and the postpartum onset of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, like antepartum hypertension poses long-term health risks to pregnant individuals, including an increased likelihood of developing overall cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and chronic hypertension. In this paper, we estimate the trends in the incidence of readmissions for postpartum hypertension within 42 days of delivery discharge in the US, disaggregated by median household income.

Objective: To assess the role of occupational noise exposure on pregnancy complications in urban Nordic populations.
Methods: A study population covering five metropolitan areas in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden was generated using national birth registries linked with occupational and residential environmental exposures and sociodemographic variables. The data covered all pregnancies during 5-11 year periods in 2004‒2016, resulting in 373 184 pregnancies.

This systematic review aimed to explore the efficacy of both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions in managing hypertension during pregnancy. It analyzed high-quality randomized controlled trials (RCTs), focusing on outcomes related to maternal and fetal health. The findings demonstrated that antihypertensive medications, particularly labetalol and nifedipine, effectively reduced the risks of severe preeclampsia (PE), preterm birth, and other complications.
