TABLE II.

Clinical characteristics of control, type 1 diabetic (including pre-eclamptic) and type 2 diabetic patients across pregnancy, and of pre-eclamptic patients in the third trimester.

	Control (n=10)	Type 1 Diabetic (n=9)	Type 2 Diabetic (n=3)	Pre-Eclamptic (n=2)
Blood Pressure (mmHg)	115/73 (± 1.9/1.3)	122/73 (± 2.7/2.0)	133/87 (± 14.5/3.3)	142/87 (± 10.5/8.5)
Blood Glucose (mmol/L)	NAD	8.7 (± 1.2)	10.1 (± 0.0)	NM
HbA1C (% of Hb)	NAD	7.9 (± 0.6)	NM	NM
Urine protein/24 hour (mg/dL)	4.0 (± 3.0)	63.3 (± 27.2)	0.0 (± 0.0)	15.0 (± 15.0)

Data are mean ± SEM. Both PE patients are type 1 diabetic. Hb, hemoglobin. NAD, no abnormality detected. NM, not measured. Normal ranges for blood glucose (3.3–5.6 mmol/L) and HbA1C (3.6–5.0% of Hb). Trace values for urine protein/24 hour are 5–20 mg/dL.
