Sen et al. also demonstrated that a pro-inflammatory diet during pregnancy, characterized by high total fat intake, was positively associated with CRP levels as shown in our study, but showed no overall association with preeclampsia, suggesting that although there is a relation between fat intake and pro-inflammatory markers such as CRP, this association alone may not be strong enough to induce HDP complications of pregnancy [35]. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is preeclampsia.
