Abstract

Objective: To analyse Endocan-1, a biomarker of vascular endothelial related pathologies, and Placental growth factor (PlGF), an angiogenic factor and a placental dysfunction marker in patients with pre-eclampsia (PE).
Methods: Case-control study conducted at São Lucas Hospital. Endocan-1 and PlGF levels were quantified in maternal plasma using MagPlexTH-C microspheres system and analysed by ANCOVA adjusted by BMI, gestational age and maternal age. To estimate the difference between groups, mean ratio (MR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Pearson correlation test was used to establish any association between Endocan-1 and PlGF levels. The null hypothesis was rejected when p
