Maternal Plasma Elabela, a Biomarker for the Severity and Kidney Function of Human Preeclampsia

Background: It reported that serum Elabela level was decreased in preeclampsia patients. However, there is no researcher done the study on correlations between plasma and kidney function, blood pressure, glucose lipid Our objective determined whether could be a marker for severity function of preeclampsia. Methods: 72 pregnant women were enrolled this divided into healthy group (n = 37), mild 20) severe 15). The detected using ELISA. Results: Plasma reduced patients compared to group, had lower poorer function. negatively correlated with those uric acid (UA), creatinine (Cre), cystatin C (CysC), systolic pressure (SBP) diastolic (DBP). Conclusions: Lower concentration worse higher pressures
