Abstract

Pre-eclampsia, which is characterized by maternal hypertension, proteinuria, hypoperfusion of end organs and a systemic maternal innate inflammatory response, is a leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity world-wide. When of early-onset, pre-eclampsia is associated with fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). IUGR can occur in isolation, so-called normotensive IUGR. What is poorly understood is that some women develop the maternal syndrome of pre-eclampsia whilst others have only the fetal syndrome (normotensive IUGR), despite the fact that the initiating event in both is believed to be reduced uteroplacental perfusion.
