Fibrinolytic protein profiles before pregnancy and during pregnancy. Means with a common letter are not significantly different (p < .05). A) Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) increased in late pregnancy compared with prepregnancy and early pregnancy measurements. There were no differences at any time point between those women who developed complicated hypertension and those with uncomplicated pregnancies. B) T-Pa is increased during late pregnancy in both groups compared with earlier time points. During the third trimester, T-Pa was significantly higher in those who developed complicated hypertension during pregnancy, before the development of disease (p < .001). There are no differences between groups before pregnancy or in early pregnancy. C) D-Dimer increases in late pregnancy compared with prepregnancy and early pregnancy values. There are no differences between those women who developed complicated hypertension and those with uncomplicated pregnancies.
