Lipoprotein subfraction concentrations in preeclampsia: Pathogenic parallels to atherosclerosis

Abstract

To determine whether large triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, very-low-density lipoprotein₁ (VLDL₁), and small, dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL-III), are significantly increased in women with preeclampsia compared with concentrations seen in normal pregnancy.
