Circulating levels of total- and reduced- (free thiol)
β2GPI in women with pre-eclampsia (PE). Peripheral blood samples were collected at term before delivery. Total and reduced (free thiol) β2GPI levels in circulating blood samples were assessed in the control (n = 14) and PE (n = 26) groups. All bars represent the mean ± SEM. Dot plots for each measurement value were superimposed onto the bar graph. Data were evaluated by the Shapiro–Wilk normality test and Student’s t-test (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01).
