A. The median plasma C5a concentration was higher in patients with preeclampsia with SGA (median: 19.7 ng/ml; range: 4.5 – 119 ng/ml) or without SGA (median: 19.7 ng/ml; range: 4.3 – 94.1 ng/ml) than normal pregnant women (median: 12.4 ng/ml; range: 1.2 – 87.1 ng/ml) or women with isolated SGA (median: 14.3 ng/ml; range: 1.1 – 30.5 ng/ml). B. In contrast, women with preeclampsia and SGA had a median plasma C4a concentration lower than normal pregnant women (preeclampsia and SGA median: 5696 ng/ml; range: 389.9 – 35690 ng/ml vs. normal pregnancy median: 10125.4 ng/ml; range: 850.7 – 32640 ng/ml; p=0.001). No differences in plasma C4a concentration were observed among other groups. C. There were no significant differences in the C3a plasma concentration among the study groups.
