Urine clues may spot Pre-Eclampsia risk in hypertensive pregnancies

NCT ID NCT04520048

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether tiny particles from blood vessels, found in urine, can help predict which pregnant women with high blood pressure will develop a dangerous condition called pre-eclampsia. Researchers will measure these particles in 110 pregnant women at two points during pregnancy. The goal is to find a simple, non-invasive way to identify those at highest risk.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple urine test to predict pre-eclampsia in pregnant women with high blood pressure, allowing earlier monitoring and care.
What could go wrong
This is an early exploratory study with only 110 participants, so results may not apply to all women. The test may not prove accurate enough for routine use.
