i dont know if you are a genuine patient or a student interested in recent advances. since you have asked for recent advences only, i would skip magnesium sulphate and phenytoin. i would also skip known causes and treatment modalities of PIH.
let's go to hyperhomocysteinemia as a cause of PIH. now this works like this : homocysteine starts clotting microvessels in the placenta, pretty much the same mechanism as in anti-phospholipid syndrome. however, the treatment of this is simple. combine methylcobalamin, pyridoxine and folic acid. this is because these vitamins act as a catalyst for breaking homocysteine into methionine and cysteine. so here we have something we can measure - homocysteine levels; and treatable.
if you have anything to add to this please let me know.
