2.	Heparin (Liquaemin)FDA LinkGeneric 01/01/1973 - "Heparin in the treatment of preeclamptic toxemia." 11/01/1987 - "Hereditary protein C was diagnosed but full heparinization followed by low-dose heparin failed to prevent preeclamptic toxemia."
3.	Ferritins (Ferritin)IBA 03/01/1989 - "These results suggest that placental isoferritin may be a useful marker for preeclamptic toxemia of pregnancy." 03/01/1989 - "The mean serum concentration of placental isoferritin for the women with preeclamptic toxemia was found to be low: 7.5 +/- 23 U/ml compared with 81.6 +/- 89.3 U/ml in normal pregnancy during the third trimester and 54.8 +/- 53 U/ml in term delivery. " 03/01/1989 - "The serum concentrations of placental isoferritin and normal ferritin were determined in 20 patients with preeclamptic toxemia of pregnancy and were compared with the level measured in normal pregnant women at the third trimester and in labor at term. " 08/01/1998 - "Low serum placental isoferritin (PLF), an immunosuppressive cytokine-like protein, was found in women with underlying placento-vascular dysfunction, such as intrauterine growth retardation and preeclamptic toxemia. "
4.	Endothelin-1 (Endothelin 1)IBA 02/01/1992 - "Endothelin-1 levels were measured by means of radioimmunoassay in the serum of 26 pregnant women with hypertension (14 with pregnancy-induced preeclamptic toxemia, 12 with chronic hypertension) and in the serum of 17 control pregnant women and 18 control nonpregnant women. "
5.	CytokinesIBA 08/01/1998 - "Low serum placental isoferritin (PLF), an immunosuppressive cytokine-like protein, was found in women with underlying placento-vascular dysfunction, such as intrauterine growth retardation and preeclamptic toxemia. "
6.	ZincIBA 08/01/1989 - "Placental zinc was also 12% lower in patients with preeclamptic toxemia than in control subjects (p less than 0.04). " 08/01/1989 - "However, in parturients with preeclamptic toxemia, the plasma zinc level was 19% lower than in control subjects (p less than 0.02); these patients had the lowest plasma zinc level of the three groups. " 08/01/1989 - "The results support a marginal zinc deficiency in parturients with preeclamptic toxemia but not in those with chronic hypertension. " 08/01/1989 - "However, a significant positive correlation was found between whole-blood cadmium and plasma zinc levels in preeclamptic toxemia (r = 0.53; p less than 0.05). "
