Intrauterine Growth Restriction: An Emerging Cardiovascular Risk Factor

Precision Medicine for Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy—Are We There Yet?

“…Although the understanding of underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms of HDPs related to CVD demonstrated here by Schuermans et al is a critical step forward, more research is needed. First would be to determine if these findings extend to individuals of more diverse ancestries.…”

“…The present study by Schuermans et al leverages data from 21 758 individuals of European ancestry to examine the role of 75 candidate CVD proteins in the development of HDPs. Overall, 10 proteins were associated with either gestational hypertension or preeclampsia; 2 of them had consistent associations with both gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, 6 were associated only with gestational hypertension, and 2 with only preeclampsia.…”
