Risk factors for pre-eclampsia at antenatal booking: systematic review of controlled studies
TL;DR: Factors that may be present at antenatal booking and the underlying evidence base can be used to assess risk at booking so that a suitable surveillance routine to detect pre-eclampsia can be planned for the rest of the pregnancy.

Eclampsia in the United Kingdom
TL;DR: Eclampsia occurs in nearly one in 2000 maternities in the United Kingdom and is associated with high maternal morbidity and fatality in cases, and may present unheralded by warning signs.

Pre-eclampsia part 1: current understanding of its pathophysiology
TL;DR: The diagnosis, classification, clinical manifestations and putative pathogenetic mechanisms of pre-eclampsia are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pregnancy-related mortality from preeclampsia and eclampsia.
TL;DR: The continuing racial disparity in mortality from preeclampsia and eClampsia emphasizes the need to identify those differences that contribute to excess mortality among black women, and to develop specific interventions to reduce mortality from prenatal care and e clampsia among all women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secular Trends in the Rates of Preeclampsia, Eclampsia, and Gestational Hypertension, United States, 1987–2004
TL;DR: The observation of a small but consistent increase in preeclampsia is a conservative indication of a true population-level change in the United States, and may be exaggerated because of the revised clinical guidelines published in the 1990s.

Applied Linear Regression Models
TL;DR: In this article, a simple linear regression with one predictor variable variable is proposed for time series data, where the predictor variable is a linear regression model with a single predictor variable and the regression model is a combination of linear regression and regression with multiple predictors.

Preeclampsia: an imbalance in placental prostacyclin and thromboxane production.
TL;DR: In both normal and preeclamptic placentas, the production rates of thromboxane and prostacyclin were inhibited by indomethacin and not affected by arachidonic acid, so that their biologic actions on vascular tone, platelet aggregation, and uterine activity will be balanced.

Causes of maternal mortality in the United States
TL;DR: Among 2475 maternal deaths that occurred in the United States from 1974 to 1978, 408 were related to pregnancies with abortive outcomes, and 2067 were due to other causes.

Causes of Maternal Mortality in the United States
TL;DR: Nationwide surveillance of maternal mortality is feasible and should help to increase the safety of childbearing.

A Simple Method for Approximating the Variance of a Complicated Estimate
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show the useful results which can be obtained by simply reversing the order between selection units and component variables in this linear expression, assuming that the samples are large enough to justify using the Taylor approximation.
