  1. Binary logistic regression: preeclampsia patients vs control subjects, dominant model. Number of subjects and frequencies (%) are presented. OR indicates odds ratio, CI confidence interval and BMI body mass index. aAltogether 1324 preeclamptic and 694 non-preeclamptic women were successfully genotyped. BMI information was missing for 3 preeclamptic cases (1 CC and 2 CG genotypes)
