We examined the relationship of maternal plasma concentrations of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), a specific marker of endothelial dysfunction, and risk of preeclampsia. We also evaluated the relationship in the presence and absence of maternal hypertriglyceridemia and hyperhomocystein(e)mia.
