Abstract
The HLA status of 37 babies who were born to African mothers suffering from eclampsia was determined. The B35 antigen was more prevalent in babies born to eclamptic mothers than one would expect (p=0±01). The number of shared antigens between mother and baby at the A and B locus was similar to that of a normal population.Keywords
