1 OBJECTIVE: To study the predictive value of urinary calcium excretion on occurrence of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH). Calcium pregnancy-induced hypertension (pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, toxemia of pregnancy included) Homo sapiens
2 3 mmol/L of urinary calcium concentration and 0.04 of Ca/Cr ratio were chosen as predictive thresholds for development of PIH, with sensitivity of 76.2%, 81.0% and specificity of 97.5%, 98.2% respectively. Calcium pregnancy-induced hypertension (pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, toxemia of pregnancy included) Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: Low urinary calcium excretion is a valuable marker for prediction of PIH. Calcium pregnancy-induced hypertension (pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, toxemia of pregnancy included) Homo sapiens
