Summary

The aim of this study is to explore a mechanism that could potentially explain why women with a pregnancy complicated by pre-eclampsia are described as having an increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life.

If the hypothesis of this study turns out to be true, that is to say that women with pre-eclampsia have a higher level of oxidative stress than women with a normal pregnancy and that this difference persists after the delivery (6 months), a controlled randomized interventional study aiming to evaluate either therapeutic supplementation with antioxidant vitamins (Vit C and E) or modifications in diet could be envisaged.
