Uric acid ratio (UAr) in women who developed different presentations of preeclampsia.

	Uric acid ratio (UAr)
	Stage 2/1	Stage 3/1	Stage 4/1
Uncomplicated pregnancies	1.12 ± 0.02	1.22 ± 0.02	1.31 ± 0.03
Preeclampsia Group A	1.85 ± 0.47	2.33 ± 0.47	–
Preeclampsia Group B	1.30 ± 0.26	1.91 ± 0.38	1.86 ± 0.26
Preeclampsia Group C	1.83 ± 0.56	1.96 ± 0.58	2.38 ± 0.57
Preeclampsia Group D	1.51 ± 0.28	1.70 ± 0.28	2.07 ± 0.34

Groups A and C showed UAr >1.5 during all gestation. On the other hand, Groups B and D showed UAr >1.5 after 30 weeks of gestation. Values are mean ± SEM.
