Analysis of association of clinical aspects and IL1B tagSNPs with severe preeclampsia.

CONCLUSION: 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.
