This table demonstrates that the blood pressure and proteinuria are significantly elevated in PE women vs NT pregnant women at term. BMI values are prepregnancy estimates. The value in each category is indicated as mean±SD. Clinical characteristic features of human subjects used in bacterial peptide display assay (Figure 2D) were reported before.48 BMI indicates body mass index; BP, blood pressure; N/A, nonapplicable; NT, normotensive; PE, preeclampsia.
P<0.001 vs normotensive pregnant women.
