[Late sequels EPH gestosis (author's transl)].
The courses of the following three groups of pregnancies were studied in the context of 146 women, with twelve years, on average, having elapsed from their first pregnancies: 1. Normal pregnancies without EPH gestosis (58 cases); 2. Pregnancies with EPH gestosis (58 cases); 3. Pregnancies with eclampsia (30 cases). - All clinical findings and statistical calculations were evaluated by means of electronic data processing. - Average systolic and diastolic blood pressures were established in follow-up checks, usually twelve years from pregnancy. They were normal, following normal pregnancies. Statistically secured blood pressures measured from patients with gestosis or eclampsia during their first pregnancy were higher than those recorded from patients in a control group, but pathological values were established in but few cases. - The following, more specialised checks proved or particular importance for an evaluation of EPH gestosis and its effects on liver function following pregnancy: serum electrophoresis, thymol test, SGOT, SGPT, direct and indirect bilirubin, blood and urinary sugar, serum cholesterol, and total fats. - The above results are likely to show that EPH gestosis and its effects are relatively well tolerated by the liver. However, discrete disorders characterised by dysproteinaemia without cellular decay and icterus may occur in certain instances.
