Preeclampsia is a pregnancy - related disorder. One of the key diagnostic features is proteinuria (presence of protein in urine). Glucose in urine is more related to diabetes (gestational or otherwise). Bacteria in urine may indicate a urinary tract infection. Blood in urine can be due to various reasons like kidney stones, infections etc., but protein is the hallmark for pre - eclampsia in terms of urine analysis.
