The aim of this study was to investigate the association between H. pylori infection and pre-eclampsia among pregnant women. Methods: Blood and stool samples were taken from 108 women with pre-eclampsia and 108 healthy pregnant women.

Whereas, 67 cases (62.4%) in the case group and 48 cases (44.4%) in the control group had Cag A antigen in stool samples that was statistically significant difference.
