Overview

Case-control study reveals lower serum calcium in preeclamptic women compared to normotensive peers, suggesting dietary supplementation could help prevent preeclampsia.

Key Points

  • Mean serum calcium levels were significantly lower in preeclamptic patients than in normotensive women, indicating possible associations with preeclampsia.
  • The study found that 58% of preeclamptic women had hypocalcemia compared to 12% in the control group, highlighting a significant difference.
  • Participants with low serum calcium levels had nearly eleven times higher odds of developing preeclampsia, suggesting a pivotal link.
  • Supplementing calcium during pregnancy could be beneficial in preventing preeclampsia, emphasizing the need for dietary attention.
