Human Epididymis Protein 4 in Women With Severe Preeclampsia / HELLP Syndrome

March 27, 2019 updated by: Radwa Rasheedy Ali, Ain Shams University

Prognostic Value of Human Epididymis Protein 4 (HE4) for Persistent Proteinuria in Women With Severe Preeclampsia / HELLP Syndrome

Pre-eclampsia seems to be associated with a four to five times increase risk of later microalbuminuria and CKD which might suggest a possible direct renal damage from pre-eclampsia
