Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pre-eclampsia (PE) and eclampsia are still problematic in perinatology, due to being a direct risk of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, as well as being an iatrogenic cause of prematurity. Even though, PE typically results in hypertensive disorders during the pregnancy, its primal cause is associated with abnormal implantation. Recent studies regarding PE and eclampsia are focused on vascular factors and genetic predisposition to the development of both PE and eclampsia. Some of them have become the basis for selecting patients who are in a group of increased risk of developing PE and eclampsia.
This Special Issue aims to establish the newest results of research dedicated to both PE and eclampsia on the molecular level. This is of great significance in regard to novel concepts of the pathophysiology of PE and eclampsia. We sincerely encourage everyone interested to submit research papers related to this topic.
Prof. Dr. Mariusz Dubiel
