“…Increased TG, found in pregnancy induced hypertension, is likely to be deposited in predisposed vessels, such as the uterine spiral arteries and contributes to the endothelial dysfunction, both directly and indirectly through generation of small, dense LDL (9). Moreover, this hypertriglyceridemia may be associated with hypercoagulability (10). In our study, in contrast to normal pregnant women, the rise in serum TG was statistically significant (P<0.05) in preeclamptic patients, but not so significant in eclamptic patients (P>0.05).…”
