[Pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) and osteoporosis].
The authors have already reported that the bone density of normal pregnant women might be kept at the same density as in normal non-pregnant women. However, it might be decreased in women with pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) by estimating serum calcium levels, serum levels of calcium regulating hormones and calcium secretion into the urine. In order to demonstrate this theory, the degree o...
متن کاملRelationship between gestational diabetes and pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH)
Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) both have no adequate classification in addition to nomenclature that creates difficulties for researchers to find link between them.

متن کاملMaternal and Fetal Indicators of Oxidative Stress during Pregnancy-induced Hypertension (pih)
The present study demonstrates the possibility of increased lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in both maternal and fetal erythrocytes as markers of oxygen radical activity during pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). The erythrocyte malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly elevated in mothers with PIH when compared to controls (p<0.001). The endogenous protein damage due to oxidat...
متن کاملPregnancy-induced hypertension in twin pregnancy.
A prospective study of 54 primigravid twin pregnancies in Durban showed that pregnancy-induced hypertension occurred in 37%. This was more than twice the expected rate for singleton pregnancies in this Black African population. The babies born in the group of patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension were significantly lighter and had a higher rate of fetal growth retardation than the babies...
متن کاملPregnancy-Induced hypertension.
Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) complicates 6-10% of pregnancies. It is defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP) >140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >90 mmHg. It is classified as mild (SBP 140-149 and DBP 90-99 mmHg), moderate (SBP 150-159 and DBP 100-109 mmHg) and severe (SBP ≥ 160 and DBP ≥ 110 mmHg). PIH refers to one of four conditions: a) pre-existing hypertension, b) gestati...
