Abstract
The mean concentrations of total protein and the electrophoretic fractions of the serum proteins, as well as the mean levels of haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin were determined among gravidas with acute hypertension classified by renal morphology. Among these subjects, elevated mean values for alpha-1 globulin and haptoglobin were statistically significant. When comparisons were made with normal gravidas at corresponding periods of gestation, an elevated mean concentration of alpha-1 globulin identified the group of patients with the toxemic glomerular lesion. When comparisons were made between the groups of patients with abnormal renal morphology, an elevated mean level of haptoglobin characterized the group of patients with the lesions of chronic latent glomerulonephritis.
