This meta-analysis, the first of its kind showed that the increased serum IMA concentrations were indicative of increased oxidative stress in NP and PE. Measurement of maternal serum IMA and fetal cord-blood IMA concentrations were useful as simple, novel, and inexpensive markers of oxidative stress (OS) status in PE patients. Future large-scale studies are needed to explore IMA in relationship to the disease severity in PE.
