Data are presented as mean (SD) unless otherwise noted.
Significant differences between groups are based on P‐values (≤0.05) from a pairwise Wilcoxon test for continuous variables and Chi‐square test for categorical variables. Except for the instances described below, differences between all pairwise comparisons for each parameter were significant.
Significant differences were only seen between the C versus GH and PE versus GH groups.
Significant differences were only seen between the C versus PE and C versus GH groups.
Data are presented as median (interquartile range).
Birth outcome data were missing for 239 control, 25 PE, and 40 GH mothers.
Parity data were missing for 22 control and 9 GH mothers and maternal BMI data were missing for 35 control and 5 PE mothers.

Data are presented as median (interquartile range).
Group‐difference P‐values are based on a Kruskal–Wallis rank sum test.
Differences in all pairwise comparisons for each parameter from a pairwise Wilcoxon test were significant (P ≤ 0.05).
PAPPA2 data were missing for 107 control, 9 PE and 85 GH mothers.

Predictive values are based upon the theoretical prevalence of PE of 5% and 7% reported in the published literature and the 17% seen in this study.
