Özet

Women with preeclampsia have been shown to have elevated blood levels of the metabolite homocysteine, and alterations in blood levels of zinc and copper have also been reported. This study measured plasma levels of zinc, copper, and homocysteine in women with preeclampsia and in women with healthy, normotensive pregnancies.
