The P/C ratio of 1.35 ± 2.54 had 94.4% sensitivity, 94.9% specificity, 97.1% PPV, 90.2% NPV, and 94.5% overall accuracy in detection of significant proteinuria ( > 1 g/24-hour urine) in PE. This study suggests the use of P/C ratio as an alternative to 24-hour urine protein to detect significant proteinuria in PE.
