Cross-sectional study shows uric acid levels correlate with severity in preeclampsia, suggesting diagnostic potential.

Women with severe preeclampsia presented significantly elevated uric acid levels, indicating a connection to condition severity.
Diagnostic accuracy of predicting severe preeclampsia from uric acid was 0.691, showcasing moderate predictive capacity.
This cross-sectional study analyzed 151 preeclamptic women, comparing uric acid levels and other biomarkers like ASAT and LDH.
Uric acid's predictive value for complications appears weaker than that of other biomarkers, indicating limitations in its use.

Fatima Zohra El Kadi (2025) studied this question.
