Summary

This study is testing whether three substances in the blood can help doctors diagnose and monitor preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy condition involving high blood pressure. Researchers will measure these markers in 120 pregnant women between 20 and 36 weeks. The goal is to find a more accurate way to detect preeclampsia early and track how well treatment is working.
