<jats:p>The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between serum iron concentrations in early healthy pregnancy and the risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension. The data comes from our prospective cohort study in which we recruited healthy women in week 10–14 of single pregnancy. We examined a study group (n = 121) consisting of women subsequently developing pregnancy-induced hypertension and a control group (n = 363) of matched women remaining normotensive. We measured iron concentrations in the serum collected in 10–14 gestational week, using the ICP-MS technique (mass spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma). The odds ratios of the disease (95% confidence intervals) for iron concentrations were assessed in multivariate logistic regression. We found that the mean microelement concentration was lower in the case group compared to normotensive controls (p = 0.011). Women in the lowest quartile of iron (≤801.20 µg/L) had a 2.19-fold increase in pregnancy-induced hypertension risk compared with women in the highest quartile (>1211.75 µg/L) (odds ratio (OR) = 2.19; 95% CI: 1.24–3.88; p = 0.007). This result was sustained after adjusted for all the accepted confounders. Women in the higher Q2 quartile (801.20–982.33 µg/L) had a 17% lower risk, compared with those in the highest quartile (OR = 0.83; 95% CI: 0.65–2.32; p = 0.519).</jats:p>
