- Abstract
The article presents a study which assesses the relationship between first trimester uterine artery Doppler ultrasound measurements and the development of term and preterm pre-eclampsia. The uterine artery Doppler data in the study indicate that preterm pre-eclampsia in strongly associated with defective invasion of the spiral arteries, in contrast to the findings in term pre-eclampsia which may be a consequence of placental deterioration at pregnancy term.
