  1. Data are given as median (interquartile range).
  2. Pa, PE with SGA versus controls; Pb, PE without SGA versus controls; Pc, PE with SGA versus PE without SGA.
  3. MoM multiple of the median, SGA small for gestational age.
  4. P value by the Kruskal–Wallis test.
  5. P value by the Wilcoxon rank sum test (adjusted by the step-up Bonferroni method).
