Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Aim of this study is to determine the relationship between serum concentrations of cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) and pre-eclampsia severity.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Although the source of CA-125 during pregnancy is the fetal chorion, amniotic fluid, and maternal decidua, the perinatal dynamics of maternal serum CA-125 requires clarification. Clinical studies of CA-125 levels and its function in hypertensive pregnant patients are limited and offered contradictory results (Cebesoy et al., 2009).

And so we investigate CA-125 in normal pregnancy and in pre-eclampsia, comparing mild and sever pre-eclampsia to determine relationship of CA-125 and severity of the disease.

Patients will be divided in three groups:

* Control: 40 normal healthy pregnant women attending the ER in labor.
* Mild pre-eclampsia: 40 patients fulfilling the following criteria.

* Blood pressure: systolic blood pressure \>140 and \<160 , Diastolic blood pressure \>90 and \<110
* Proteinuria: 300 mg (+) assessed by urine urignost 3A® (urine strips from DIALAB).
* No symptoms of severity as headache.
* Normal investigations for different organ function (as liver and kidney function).
* Severe pre-eclampsia :40 patients fulfilling anyone or more of the following criteria (The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, 2010)(ACOG):

* Systolic blood pressure \> 160 mmHg
* Diastolic blood pressure \> 110 mmHg (on two occasions at least 6 hours apart while the patient is on bed rest)
* Proteinuria of 5000mg (5g) or higher on a 24-hour urine collection or at least 3+ on two random urine samples collected at least 4 hours apart
* Oliguria \< 500 mL urine output in 24 hours
* Cerebral or visual functional disturbances (cns irritability)
* Pulmonary edema or cyanosis (not due to excessive intravenous volume replacement)
* Epigastric or right-upper quadrant abdominal pain
* Impaired liver function on laboratory analysis (elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine amino transferase(ALT), or lactate dehydrogenase(LDH))
* Thrombocytopenia (platelet count \< 150,000/uL)
* Fetal growth restriction.
