Research Roundup
The most important preeclampsia research studies, explained for you. A team of diverse researchers scour the peer-reviewed research journals to highlight the most important, cutting edge studies. We try to cover basic, molecular, clinical and population sciences, and a wide range of topics such as new findings in preeclampsia diagnoses, treatment, prevention, long-term effects, risk factors and etiology of preeclampsia.

Placental dysfunction can result in conditions such as preeclampsia, which have traditionally been managed with close monitoring and appropriately timed delivery. There is currently no cure for preeclampsia, but could the development of new placental...

Background Low-dose aspirin (81 mg) is a treatment known to help lower the risk of preeclampsia. However, not everyone who is at higher risk is told to take it. This study looks at whether a screening tool for preeclampsia risk can be added to the el...
Women who experienced Preeclampsia have a higher lifetime risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) than women who did not suffer from this pregnancy complication. Researchers wanted to know if certain markers in the placenta, like FLT-1, ENG,...
Recent findings in preeclampsia research have shown that preeclampsia likely has at least two variants – an early onset and a late onset variant. Early onset is typically defined as before 34 weeks gestation and late onset is after 34 weeks ges...
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication marked by new-onset high blood pressure and signs of stress on organs such as the kidneys, liver, and brain. While much attention is often given to preterm disease, about 75% of preeclampsia cases occur at ter...
Preeclampsia is a serious problem that can happen during pregnancy. It often affects the brain and can cause headaches, vision problems, strong reflexes, and seizures (called eclampsia). In this study, researchers explored whether certain substances...
Pregnancy offers a unique window into a woman’s future heart and cardiovascular health. Conditions such as hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) which include gestational hypertension, preeclampsia (with or without severe features), and ecl...
Heart disease, also called cardiovascular disease (CVD), is becoming more common in young women across the United States. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) is a group of conditions that include high blood pressure during pregnancy, such as pr...
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy significantly increase your risk of developing long-term heart problems. A careful review of blood pressure elevations during and after pregnancy may assist in identifying patients at risk of heart disease. ...
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) can affect different groups of women in different ways, and even though we know this happening, we don't fully understand why. There are many factors, like biology, the environment, culture, and access to hea...
There is growing evidence that studies examining pregnancy and its complications need to start early within the pregnancy to fully understand the nature of preeclampsia. Key gestational milestones, which have lasting effects during and after pregnanc...
