Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
A
40 pregnant Women with hypertension who have uric acid level more than 6 mg per dL.

A non-deproteinized Jaffe reaction is employed to measure creatinine and urinary protein measured by an automated colorimetric assay using pyrogallol red and sodium molybdate.

Measuring of serum uric acid by(2,4,6-tribromo-3-hydroxybenzoic acid)TBHBA by uricase method.

B
40 pregnant women with hypertension who have uric acid level less than 6 mg per dl.

A non-deproteinized Jaffe reaction is employed to measure creatinine and urinary protein measured by an automated colorimetric assay using pyrogallol red and sodium molybdate.

Measuring of serum uric acid by(2,4,6-tribromo-3-hydroxybenzoic acid)TBHBA by uricase method.
