NPPA and hypertensive disorder: Conclusions: (1) Plasma adrenomedullin and MR-proANP concentrations were higher before the 20th week of pregnancy in women who later developed GH; (2) NT-proBNP concentrations did not differ between women with pregnancy-induced hypertension and normal pregnancies; (3) MR-proANP concentrations were highest in patients who developed pre-eclampsia in advanced pregnancy; and (4) there was a correlation between higher plasma adrenomedullin, MR-proANP concentrations before the 20th week of pregnancy, and the risk of preterm birth.
