Therefore, this study aimed to assess renal function tests and serum total protein among pregnant women with pregnancy-induced hypertension.

The analysis was done by using SPPS software (version 20.0). The level significance was set at a 95% confidence interval (p-value is less than 0.05 was considered clinically significant). Results: There was a significant increase in blood urea, and serum crea...
