Analysis of association of clinical aspects and <i>IL1B</i> tagSNPs with severe preeclampsia

Abstract

We identified an association between clinical variables and preeclampsia. Univariate analysis suggested that inflammatory process-related genes, such as IL1B, may be involved and should be targeted in further studies. The identification of the genetic background involved in preeclampsia host response modulation is mandatory in order to understand the preeclampsia process.
