MGH study identifies key proteins linked to pregnancy hypertension disorders

Preeclampsia and other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy-;which are characterized by high blood pressure with or without organ dysfunction during the second half of pregnancy-;carry considerable short- and long-term risks for both the mother and child. Treatment options (other than expedited delivery) remain limited.
