Abstract

Introduction: Serum calcium, serum phosphorus and serum magnesium decrease in preeclampsia, serum LDH and Uric acid increase. The present study on these parameters is essential in clinically diagnosed patients of hypertensive disorders to show their role in pathogenesis and diagnosis.

Patients and Methods: 42 pre eclamptic women and 42 normotensive women are included in this study.

Results: Serum calcium, magnesium and phosphorus are decreased, serum LDH and Uric acid are increased in pre-eclampsia.

Conclusion: Macronutrients have role in pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia and there is correlation with serum LDH and serum uric acid.
