Serum lipids and malondialdehyde levels in primiparous patients with pregnancy induced hypertension

Abstract: BACKGROUND : Pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) contributes to 15.6% maternal mortality in India. In Behrampur, Orissa, maternal deaths due to PIH was 32%, which is twice the national incidence. Hence in this population, some factors associated with severity of PIH were studied. Serum lipid concentrations and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were correlated with severity of PIH and birth weight of the neonate

“…Endothelial dysfunction is the most important event in the pathogenesis of hypertension during pregnancy and abnormal levels of lipid profile play their critical role in the induction of endothelial dysfunction. [11][12][13] In our study the mean serum triglyceride levels were higher in the study group than the control group, similar findings were also seen in the studies done by Commaracammy A et al, Torum Clausen et al, Ware Jauregui S et al, and Mohanty S et al [14][15][16][17] This changes seen in the preeclmaptic patients is due to increased hepatic lipase activity and decrease in lipoprotein lipase activity and also there will be delay in the uptake of triglyceride to the liver among the pre eclamaptic pregnancies.…”

“…In the present study, TC was significantly increased (p <0.01) in PIH subjects compared to control subjects consistent with other studies. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] But no significant changes in TC could be observed by some other workers. 5,19,24,28,29 Finnish and Peruvian PIH subjects had higher mean TG and lower HDL-C than the control group.…”

“…An imbalance between pro -oxidants and anti -oxidants results in oxidative stress which increases the potential for the development of pre eclampsia [12]. There is raised serum iron, percent transferrin saturation, serum ferritin and decreased TIBC, UIBC and serum transferrin and ceruloplasmin levels in preeclamptic women compared to the normal healthy pregnant controls.…”
