About this trial
Primary Aim:
\_To investigate the diagnostic potential of soluble CD163 (sCD163)as a novel biomarker for the early detection of HELLP syndrome, assessing its sensitivity and specificity compared to current diagnostic markers.
Secondary Aims:
1. To evaluate the correlation between sCD163 levels and the clinical severity of HELLP syndrome, including complications such as liver dysfunction, thrombocytopenia, and hemolysis. 2. To compare sCD163 levels across different stages of HELLP syndrome (partial vs. complete and other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (e.g., preeclampsia).
