Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy Linked to Risk for CVD
Genetically predicted hypertensive disorders of pregnancy linked to elevated risk for coronary artery disease and ischemic stroke
Genetically predicted hypertensive disorders of pregnancy linked to elevated risk for coronary artery disease and ischemic stroke
Rates of AMI and stroke remained doubled more than 20 years after delivery; increased rates also seen for women aged 30 to 39 years
Prediction model including 9 urine metabolites had the highest accuracy for predicting preeclampsia in early pregnancy
Association mainly independent of preterm or SGA birth, may be partly explained by unmeasured familial factors
Preeclampsia in a previously fathered pregnancy more common among men in the study cohort who had fathered a preeclamptic pregnancy
Established CVD risk factors account for 57 and 84% of the increased rate of CVD for preeclampsia, gestational hypertension
Odds of preeclampsia lower with greatest level of adherence to Mediterranean-style diet; similar benefit observed for Black women
Risk for hypertensive disorder of pregnancy increased in women with increase or little or no decline in blood pressure early in pregnancy
Findings reported among women at high risk due to prepregnancy diabetes, obesity, and/or chronic hypertension
Maternal mortality rate related to chronic hypertension increased by 9.2% annually in the United States from 1979 to 2018
