Brief Summary: The hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are the medical complications more prevalent during pregnancy In Canada approximately 1 of pregnancies have complications due to a pre-existing hypertension 5-6 because of hypertension of pregnancy without proteinuria and 1-2 by preeclampsia Metabolomics involves a new technology to investigate small molecules that characterize biochemical pathways of interest The change in concentration levels of these molecules in various biological samples such as urine and blood in the presence of a disease or a patient can be particularly useful for identifying new biomarkers Our hypothesis is that metabolic patterns in blood and urine of pregnant women who had preeclampsia differ from the metabolomics patterns of patients without preeclampsiaThe whole research program has two complementary objectives in order to expect a decrease of prematurity a better understanding of all the physiological mechanisms leading to prematurity and b better identification of patients at high risk for a better management of these women
Detailed Description: Metabolomics involves a new technology using the methods of separation and detection complex to investigate a set of small molecules that characterize biochemical pathways of interest The change in concentration levels of these molecules in various biological samples such as urine and blood in the presence of a disease or a patient can detect metabolic fingerprints that can be particularly useful for identifying new biomarkers These will thereafter be quantified and validated by metabolic profiling To our knowledge there are few studies on metabolomics and pregnancy

Methods

The studied population will be women hospitalized for preeclampsia after 20 SA Women in the control group will be matched to women hospitalized for pre-eclampsia according to gestational age at diagnosis of pre-eclampsia maternal age parity ethnicity and body mass index

Blood and urine samples will be taken

Case control

Following the diagnosis of preeclampsia
At each blood test requested by the physician during the follow-up
When the patient will be in labor cervix ripening 5 cm or before the caesarean section
48 hours after delivery
6-8 weeks after delivery

Control group

Following the inclusion as a control in the study
At admission for delivery
When the patient will be in labor dilation 5 cm or before the caesarean section
48 hours after delivery
6-8 weeks after delivery
