Background: Comparative study of serum calcium, magnesium, uric acid and glucose in preeclampsia and normal pregnant women of malwa region of Madhya pradesh Methods: For the Study, a total of 100 women ranging in age from 18-35 years were recruited. They were divided in two groups. 50 were pre-eclamptic women with gestational age of ?20 weeks (Case group) and rest 50 were normal pregnant women of same gestational age (Control group).The levels of magnesium, calcium, glucose, and uric acid in the blood were measured. Result: Serum calcium and magnesium levels were significantly lower (p<0.001) in the pre-eclamptic group, whereas serum uric acid levels were significantly higher (p0<001) in preeclamptic group. The level of serum glucose was raised in preeclampsia. Conclusion: serum levels of calcium, magnesium, uric acid and glucose are altered in pre-eclampsia, implying that these factors may play a role in the aetiology and severity of pre-eclampsia.so assessing the serum level of this parameters will aid in the early detection of pre-eclampsia.

Background: Preeclampsia is associated with liver function abnormalities and renal function impairment. The objective of this study is to compare serum uric acid, glucose, calcium and magnesium in pre-eclampsia with normal pregnancy. Materials and Methods: Normal pregnant women and pre eclamptic women of age group 20-40 years were included. Serum magnesium, calcium, glucose, uric acid were analyzed.Results: Mean serum magnesium level in preeclampsia (1.83 ± 0.21mg/dl) was lesser in comparison to normal pregnant women (2.03 ± 0.16 mg/dl). Serum calcium level was lower (8.10 ±0.56mg/dl) than control (9.59 ±0.62 mg/dl) with p<0.001. Uric acid, glucose and lactate dehydrogenase in preeclamptic women was significantly higher than that in normal pregnant women (6.14 ± 0.85 vs.4.01 ± 0.62, p=<0.001), (94.17± 18.65 vs.86.34 ± 10.19, p=0.033) and ( 466.80 ± 97.29 vs. 194.22 ± 39.76, p=<0.001) respectively.Conclusion: There were significant changes in serum magnesium, uric acid, calcium, glucose, lactate dehydrogenase and total protein in pregnant women.

ABSTRACT Studies of iodine metabolism have been carried out in 15 pregnant women, 33 cases with sporadic goitre and 11 with thyrotoxicosis. A low plasma inorganic iodine was common to the three groups. In pregnancy and sporadic goitre the thyroid clearance of iodine was elevated and the absolute iodine uptake normal. A high thyroid clearance of iodine in thyrotoxicosis was associated with a high absolute iodine uptake. The results suggest that both pregnancy and sporadic goitre are physiological responses to an iodine deficiency state while the iodine deficiency state of thyrotoxicosis is secondary to increased thyroid activity.

Background: Hypertensive disorder of pregnancy occurs in approximately 6-8% of all pregnancies. The most serious consequences for the mother and the baby are the result of preeclampsia and eclampsia. Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) is an intracellular enzyme. Recently LDH has been suggested as potential marker to predict severity of pre-eclampsia. The objective of the present study was to compare the serum lactate dehydrogenase levels in women with preeclampsia and normal pregnant women and to correlate lactate dehydrogenase levels with maternal and perinatal outcome in preeclampsia.Methods: An observational prospective study was conducted on 200 antenatal women attending the labour room emergency. Women with singleton pregnancy and cephalic presentation, from 28 weeks onwards were enrolled in the study. Out of 200, 100 were normal pregnant women and 100 were preeclamptic women. Serum LDH levels were measured in all women and maternal and perinatal outcome was assessed in terms of LDH levels.Results: Higher levels of LDH was observed in pregnant women with preeclampsia (627.38±230.04 IU/l) as compared to normal pregnant women (224.43±116.61 IU/l). The maternal complications were found to be maximum in women with LDH > 800 IU/l.  Abruption was the most common complication. The perinatal mortality and neonatal deaths were found to have significant correlation with high LDH levels.Conclusions: Maternal and perinatal complications were associated with higher LDH levels in preeclampsia patients. Serum LDH levels can be offered to all patients of preeclampsia and can be used to predict the prognosis of preeclampsia.

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy syndrome affecting multiple organ systems, characterized by hypertension and proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation. The incidence of preeclampsia is estimated to be 3-10% of pregnancies worldwide and is the leading cause of death for pregnant women. Preeclampsia is a life-threatening obstetric emergency, so it needs prompt and precise treatment to prevent morbidity and mortality. WHO estimates that the incidence of preeclampsia is seven times higher in developing countries (2.8% of live births) than in developed countries 1,2 (0.4%).
