Clinical Influence of Nonadherence With Prophylactic #Aspirin in Preventing #Preeclampsia in High-Risk Pregnancies

..Women with inadequate adherence had higher incidence of early-onset preeclampsia (17% versus 2%; odds ratio [OR], 1.9 [95% CI, 1.1–8.7]; P=0.04), late-onset preeclampsia (41% versus 5%; OR, 4.2 [95% CI, 1.4–19.8]; P=0.04), intrauterine growth restriction (29% versus 5%; OR, 5.8; [95% CI, 1.2–8.3]; P=0.001), preterm delivery (27% versus 10%; OR, 5.2 [95% CI, 1.5–8.7]; P=0.008), and higher likelihood of increase in antihypertensives antenatally (60% versus … Continue reading Clinical Influence of Nonadherence With Prophylactic #Aspirin in Preventing #Preeclampsia in High-Risk Pregnancies

Age at #period cessation and trajectories of #cardiovascular risk factors across mid and later life

To examine the association between age at period cessation and trajectories of anthropometry, blood pressure, lipids and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) from midlife to age 69 years.. ..We found no evidence that age at period cessation was associated with trajectories of log triglyceride, LDL-C and HDL-C from 53 to 69 years and trajectories of SBP or DBP from 36 to 69 years, regardless of whether period … Continue reading Age at #period cessation and trajectories of #cardiovascular risk factors across mid and later life
