RESUMO
Plasma fibrinolytic activity and plasma inhibitory activity against urokinase and tissue activator were measured in primigravidae with moderate or severe pre-eclampsia and in gestation-matched primigravidae with uncomplicated pregnancy. The mean levels of fibrinolytic activity and inhibitory activity against urokinase and tissue activator did not differ significantly between the pre-eclampsia and uncomplicated pregnancy groups. The pattern of inhibitory fractions of plasminogen-depleted plasma from pre-eclamptic and uncomplicated primigravidae after gel filtration on sephadex G-100 was similar.
