- Data are mean ± standard deviation. BP blood pressure. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-test. **p < 0.01 vs. nonpregnant and normotensive pregnant groups. Proteinuria of all patients from the nonpregnant and normotensive groups was below the detection limit of the measurement
