Preeclampsia, Birthweight, & Heart Disease Risk: Surprising New Findings!

A new study reveals a surprising link between baby's birthweight and cardiovascular disease risk in mothers with preeclampsia and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). Researchers previously thought that more severe preeclampsia (leading to smaller babies) meant higher CVD risk for the mother. This study challenges that assumption! Learn how larger-than-average babies born to mothers with preterm HDP may actually indicate a higher risk of stroke, heart attack, and peripheral arterial disease for the mother later in life. We'll discuss the study's findings, potential explanations (like underlying cardiometabolic risk factors), and why further research is crucial for understanding preeclampsia and protecting maternal health.
