OBJECTIVE: We measured maternal serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1
concentrations across pregnancy and immediately postpartum in women who developed
preeclampsia and normal pregnant women. STUDY DESIGN: This was a nested case
control study of 113 normal pregnant women and 55 women with preeclampsia. RESULTS:
Serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 concentrations increased similarly in early
pregnancy in both groups. Mean serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 concentrations …
