Maternal serum angiopoietins levels in pre-eclampsia and pregnancy outcomes.

Maternal serum levels of Ang-2 but not Ang-1 were significantly depressed in women with PE compared to the pregnant normotensive controls. No significant associations were observed between Ang-1, Ang-2 levels, or the Ang-1/Ang-2 ratio and pregnancy outcomes such as preterm birth, birth weight, and severity of hypertension.
