Pronounced hemostatic changes occur during pregnancy, and the balance shifts markedly
in favor of hypercoagulability. Although primarily a result of a marked rise in the levels of …

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine whether platelet activation occurs only
in preeclampsia or also in normal pregnancy. Study Design: Thirty women with …

Platelet activation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia as
demonstrated by reduced platelet count, increased mean platelet volume and elevated …

INTRODUCTION: Platelets and the coagulation system may be involved in the pathogenesis
of pre-eclampsia. We investigated whether platelet and coagulation activation markers, are …

Objectives: An increased platelet activation status is present in patients with preeclampsia.
Our purpose was (1) to establish by means of flow cytometry whether platelets circulate in an …

We recruited 111 patients who were considered to be at significantly increased risk of
preeclampsia on the basis of previous obstetric history or preexisting medical disorders. All …

OBJECTIVES: Platelets play an important role in the pathophysiologic mechanisms of
preeclampsia. Our purpose was to investigate by means of flow cytometry to what extent …

Pre-eclampsia is a common complication of pregnancy, in which platelets may have an early
pathogenetic role. In this prospective study a whole blood flow cytometric method has been …

Preeclampsia is still a leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. There is
evidence for the involvement of platelets. Therefore, we investigated the suitability of …
