Review ofLiterature gestation while there was no difference reported in urinary excretion rates ofcalcium between normotensive and hypertensive pregnant women. Millar et al., (1996), suggested that measurement of inactive urinary kallikrein, creatinine in a random urine sample collected between 16-20 weeks gestation could be used for early prediction of pre eclampsia. Urinary kallikrein excretion has been shown to increase in normotensive pregnancy , whereas in preeclampsia reduced levels as compared to non-pregnant subjects have been found (Baker, 1993). 3- Urinary Excretion of Prostacyclin Metabolites: Evidence is accumulating that a relative deficiency of vascular prostacyclin plays an important role in the development ofpreeclampsia.
