To characterize the gut microbiota in patients with preeclampsia (PE) compared with healthy controls. We analyzed and compared the microbiota communities in the feces of 48 PE patients with 48 age-, gestational weeks-, and pre-pregnancy body mass index-matched healthy controls using 16S rRNA gene se...
