Among 94 women with diagnosed "primary" gestosis during pregnancy, 67 patients demonstrated (3-6 months after delivery) chronic glomerulonephritis (25 women) or chronic pyelonephritis (28 women) or hypertension caused by others than nephrologic reasons. "Primary" gestosis was diagnosed correctly only in 29% cases. The most often reason of "secondary" gestosis was undiagnosed chronic nephropathy before and during pregnancy. Obtained results confirm other data informing that "primary" gestosis is a rare phenomenon.

Objectives: Literature data show that excess and primary deficiency in particular nutrients, vitamins and minerals may lead to pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, hypertension and neural tube defects in the foetus. The aim of the study was to determine differences in average daily consumption of selected nutrients during pregnancy in women who did not supplement their diet and to evaluate the influence of dietary habits on the occurrence of pre-term delivery and hypertension in pregnant women.
Sample Group And Methods: Information on the course of pregnancy and the newborn's health status at birth was derived from the Charter of Pregnancy and documents recorded by the hospital.

Purpose: Solitary maternity is a significant problem of modern times requiring socio-economic and psychological, as well as perinatological studies. The twentieth anniversary of the Maternity Home managed by the Benedictine Samaritan Sisters motivated the present study.
Material And Methods: Hospital discharge summaries of 429 women (group DSM) who lived at the Maternity Home between 26 July 1983 and 26 February 2002 were analyzed.

A rare case of pregnancy in a patient with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 is reported offering a clinical contribution for the prognostic study of a natural event such as the pregnancy on these patients. It is underlined how epicriticity of the hepatorenal system is remarkably altered during the last weeks of pregnancy with a great increase of calciuria and proteinuria with a risk of life for the patient and the newborn. In fact, during the 36rd week a caesarean section was performed due to gestosis.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the influence that pregnancy has on the progression of primary nephrotic syndrome (NS). We investigated in pregnant rats the clinical characteristics of NS, including urinary protein concentration, serum albumin, cholesterol, triglycerides, urea, creatinine and electrolytes (potassium, sodium, calcium). Proteinuria and edema increasing during pregnancy, hyponatremia, and also exudates to body cavities were signs of secondary preeclampsia.

A comparative study of the morpho-functional characteristics of the circulating neutrophils was carried out by the electron microscopy method on women with physiological pregnancy and pregnancy-induced hypertension or EPH gestosis. Some leukocyte reactions were observed, and their intensity depended on the clinical manifestation of the EPH gestosis. In neutrophils there were detected reformation in the nucleus in the form of redistribution of the ratio between heterochromatin and euchromatin, as well as changes in the ultrastructure of nucleolemma.
