Background: The pathophysiology of preeclampsia remains unclear. The disorder is heterogeneous, and the pathophysiology may vary by subtype. Identification of relevant biomarkers will help to better elucidate the pathophysiologic basis of each preeclampsia subtype. Blood type may be a biomarker that allows risk identification for preeclampsia. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations among maternal ABO blood type and preeclampsia subtype and fetal growth restriction (FGR). Method: Medical records of 126 women with early-onset preeclampsia (≤33 6/7 weeks’ gestation), 126 women with late-onset preeclampsia (≥34 0/7 weeks’ gestation), and 259 controls who gave birth between January 2012 and June 2016 were retrospectively abstracted from a large suburban tertiary referral center in South Central Pennsylvania for this hospital-based case–control study. Results: Women with AB blood type had >3 times the odds of late-onset preeclampsia (odds ratio [ OR] = 3.35, 95% confidence interval (CI) = [1.02, 11.05]) compared to those with O blood type. Among women with early-onset preeclampsia, those with B blood type had 5 times the odds of having a growth-restricted fetus than did women with O blood type ( OR = 5.44, 95% CI [1.65, 17.94]). Discussion: Our findings suggest that AB blood type may be an important risk factor for late-onset preeclampsia and that among women with early-onset preeclampsia, those with B blood type have increased odds of FGR. These findings warrant further study in women and their offspring to identify the pathophysiologic processes that may link ABO blood type, preeclampsia subtype, and FGR.

Background: Preeclampsia is being increasingly recognized as two different entities: early-onset preeclampsia occurring at less than 34 weeks of gestation, and late-onset disease occurring at 34 or more weeks of gestation. Early-onset and late-onset pre-eclampsia are found to have different implications for the mother and neonate. The aim of this study is to compare the risk factors, maternal and fetal outcomes in early (<34 weeks) versus late (≥34weeks) onset preeclampsia.Methods: 208 patients diagnosed with pre-eclampsia in Chettinad Academy of Research and Education over a period of three years (From January 2014 to December 2016) were retrospectively studied. Patients were classified as early onset and late onset pre-eclampsia based on the gestational age of onset. Data on risk factors, maternal and fetal outcomes were collected and analyzed using Chi Square and Fisher’s test and compared.Results: The overall preeclampsia rate was 6.3%. Early onset and late onset were 34.6% and 65.3% respectively and the rate increased with increasing gestational age.35.3% of patients with late onset preeclampsia and 55.6% patients of early onset type required more than one drug which is a statistically significant difference. Proteinuria more than 3gm/l/day was significantly more in late onset preeclampsia than in early onset preeclampsia. 55.5% of patients with early onset pre-eclampsia required MgSO4 when compared to 17.4%. There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of caesarean section (61.1% vs 73.5%). Altered coagulation profile was significantly more in early onset preeclampsia (11.1%). The incidence of oligohydramnios, SGA and low APGAR at 5 minutes of birth were significantly high in early onset pre-eclampsia when compared to late onset type.Conclusions: Patients with early onset pre-eclampsia are found to have significantly higher rates of specific maternal and fetal morbidity when compared to the late onset type.

Objective. The aim of this study was to determine whether maternal serum matrix metalloproteinases 2, 3, 9, and 13 levels differ in early- and late-onset preeclampsia and uncomplicated pregnancies. Patients and Methods. The study was carried out in 125 pregnant women (29 with early-onset preeclampsia; 31 preeclamptic patients with late-onset preeclampsia; and 65 healthy pregnant controls). Levels of MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, and MMP-13 were measured in the maternal serum using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results. Maternal serum MMP-2 levels in both the groups of preeclamptic women were significantly higher than those in the controls. Levels of MMP-3 were significantly higher in preeclamptic patients with early-onset disease; however, the MMP-3 levels in patients with late-onset preeclampsia were similar to those observed in the control subjects. MMP-9 levels were lower whereas the levels of MMP-13 were higher in both preeclamptic groups of pregnant women than in the healthy controls, but these differences were statistically insignificant. Conclusions. One important finding of the present study was that MMP-3 appears to be involved solely in early-onset preeclampsia, but not in late-onset preeclampsia. Higher levels of MMP-2 and MMP-13 and lower levels of MMP-9 seem to be related to both early- and late-onset severe preeclampsia.

Preeclampsia is a serious disorder of human pregnancy occurring after 20 weeks of gestation. It can be divided into subtypes of early onset (<34 weeks of gestation) and late onset (>34 weeks). Presymptomatic detection to identify those at high risk is important for managing this disease. HtrA3, a serine protease with high expression in the developing placenta, exists in long (HtrA3-L) and short (HtrA3-S) isoforms. They are identical, except HtrA3-S lacks the C-terminal PDZ domain. We have previously shown by Western blot analysis that serum HtrA3 levels at the end of the first trimester are significantly higher in women who later develop preeclampsia than in controls. In this study, using highly specific HtrA3 monoclonal antibodies, we established and fully validated two enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to detect both HtrA3 isoforms together (HtrA3-T) and HtrA3-L alone in the human serum. We then determined serum HtrA3 at 11 to 13 weeks of gestation in a cohort of singleton pregnancies that proceeded without complications or developed preeclampsia in the third trimester. Compared with controls, those who developed late-onset preeclampsia had significantly higher levels of HtrA3-L, whereas those who developed early-onset preeclampsia had significantly lower ratios of HtrA3-L/HtrA3-T. These data support a potential utility of these HtrA3 ELISAs for early detection of preeclampsia.

Aim. This study was designed to clarify the role of leptin and adiponectin in preeclampsia (PE) pathogenesis and different subtypes of preeclampsia.Method. This case control study was performed in 45 PE patients and 45 healthy controls matched for age, BMI, and ethnicity. Serum leptin and adiponectin levels were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results. Maternal serum leptin and adiponectin were significantly higher in PE women than controls. Serum leptin was elevated in early onset preeclampsia (EOPE) and late onset preeclampsia (LOPE) compared to controls. Among PE patients, serum leptin was higher in EOPE than LOPE women. However, serum adiponectin was not different between EOPE and LOPE women. The serum leptin was significantly higher in severe PE than mild PE. The serum adiponectin was significantly elevated in severe PE compared to controls. Significant positive correlation was observed between leptin and adiponectin and also between leptin and BMI in controls. Moreover significant positive correlation was observed between adiponectin and BMI in PE patients and controls.Conclusion. The present study showed that serum leptin level may play a significant role as a biomarker to differentiate early and late onset PE and also its relation to BMI and severity of disease.

AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan kadar IFN-γ dan IL-10 pada serum maternal antara early-onset preeclampsia dengan late-onset preeclampsia. Penelitian ini dilakukan di RSUD dr.Mohammad Suwandhie Surabaya sejak Juni – Agustus 2015, menggunakan rancangan cross-sectional. Didapatkan 13 sampel early-onset preeclampsia, 13 sampel late-onset preeclampsia, 13 sampel hamil normal <34 minggu dan 13 sampel hamil normal ≥34 minggu, total 52 sampel serum yang kemudian dilakukan pemeriksaan IFN-γ dan IL-10 serum dengan ELISA. Berdasarkan hasil analisis statistik, didapatkan nilai median kadar IFN-γ pada early-onset preeclampsia 0 pg/ml (0-149,1 pg/ml), pada late-onset preeclampsia 0 pg/ml, pada kelompok kontrol early 0 pg/ml (0-56,6 pg/ml), dan pada kelompok kontrol late 0 pg/ml (0-92,7 pg/ml). Hal ini kemungkinan terjadi karena kadar IFN-γ pada sampel lebih rendah dari ambang batas terendah deteksi kit ELISA IFN-γ human (R&D system inc). Sementara itu, nilai median kadar IL-10 pada early-onset preeclampsia adalah 91 pg/ml (6,2-163,90 pg/ml), pada late-onset preeclampsia 12,9 pg/ml (3,5 – 110,70 pg/ml), pada kontrol early 8,9 pg/ml (0-36,5 pg/ml) dan pada kontrol late 4,8 pg/ml (0-38,8 pg/ml) Secara statistik, tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna kadar IFN-γ antara early-onset preeclampsia dengan late-onset preeclampsia, begitu pula dengan kelompok kontrol (harga p = 0,073). Sedangkan, menurut statistik didapatkan perbedaan bermakna kadar IL-10 antara early-onset preeclampsia dengan late-onset preeclampsia, begitu pula dengan kelompok kontrol (harga p <0,0001). Kesimpulan, tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna kadar IFN-γ baik pada kelompok early-onset preeclampsia maupun late-onset preeclampsia, sedangkan kadar IL-10 pada early-onset preeclampsia lebih tinggi dari pada late-onset preeclampsia.  Kata kunci: early-onset preeclampsia, late-onset preeclampsia, preeklampsia, IFN-γ, IL-10

Early Onset Preeclampsia (EO-PE) is preeclampsia that develops before 34 weeks 'gestation, caused by intrinsic factors, while Late Onset Preeclampsia (LO-PE) is preeclampsia that develops after 34 weeks' gestation due to extrinsic and maternal factors. There is an increased production of antiangiogenic factors (sFlt-1, s-Eng and PIGF) contribute to pathophysiology of preeclampsia.This study aims to measure the difference of sFlt-1, sEng, PIGF levels between EO-PE and LO-PE. This was an observational study with cross sectional design conducted at Dr. M. Djamil, TK Hospital. III dr. Reksodiwiryo and Biomedical Laboratory FK Unand Padang from August 2017 to August 2018. The sample of this study were 26 severe preeclampsia women : 13 (EO-PE)  and 13 (LO-PE), selected using consecutive sampling. Levels of sFlt-1, sEng, PIGF were examined using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Statistical analysis was performed using unpaired t test and Mann-Whitney Test. Results shown that serum levels of sFlt-1 and sEng in (EO-PE)  were 9.51 ± 0.71 ng / L, 1.44 ± 0.06 ng / mL, 5.79 ± 0.42 ng / mL while in PEAL it was 8, 89 ± 0.78 ng / mL, 1.35 ± 0.14 ng / mL, 6.72 ± 0.76. There were a significant difference with a value of p <0.05. The conclusion of this study is that the levels of sFlt-1 and sEng are higher in (EO-PE)  than(LO-PE)and PIGF levels was lower in (EO-PE) compared to (LO-PE)
