The predictive variables of capillary glucose and proteinuria, collected at repeated time points in antenatal care in the study population of 58 899 nulliparous women.
Predictive variables at first antenatal visit | Without preeclampsia n = 56,323 | With preeclampsia n = 2576 | P-value | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
N | N | ||||
Capillary glucose ≥ 9 mmol/L* % | 1 842 | 3.3 | 135 | 5.3 | < 0.001 |
Proteinuria dipstick† % | < 0.001 | ||||
1+ | 5 779 | 10.5 | 666 | 26.0 | |
≥ 2+ | 745 | 1.4 | 1 140 | 44.4 |
*Dichotomous time-varying predictor: if ≥ 9 mmol/L at any antenatal visit, then positive.
†Categorical time-varying predictor, if 1+ or ≥ 2+, at any antenatal visit, otherwise 0.
