Fetal Fornix and Hippocampus in Pregnant Women With Early-Onset Preeclampsia
Since early-onset preeclampsia (EOPE) is commonly associated with inadequate placentation, placental insufficiency, chronic fetal hypoxia, oxidative stress, and heightened inflammation, these pathological processes may adversely affect hippocampal neuronal development and maturation of axonal pathways such as the fornix. These mechanisms support our hypothesis that fetal fornix and hippocampus dimensions may …
Lung Ultrasound for the Detection of Volume Overload in Patients With Severe Preeclampsia
This research aims to evaluate the usefulness of lung ultrasound (LUS) for detecting and monitoring fluid overload in patients with severe preeclampsia. Severe preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal death and illness worldwide, often causing fluid buildup that can lead to a serious complication called pulmonary edema, especially after …
Identifying Biomarkers for Endothelial Dysfunction in Women With Preeclampsia
Every pregnancy has a major impact on a woman's heart and blood vessels due to changes required by the body to maintain proper blood flow between mother and foetus. When the placenta does not work properly, preeclampsia can occur. An important first symptom is high blood pressure. Women who have …
LDA and LMWH vs LDA Alone in High-risk Patients for Preeclampsia Prevention
Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Low-dose aspirin started in the first trimester reduces the risk of preeclampsia in high-risk women. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) has shown potential benefits in addition to aspirin for preventing preeclampsia through its anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, and endothelial …
Ultrasound Airway Assessment of Critically Ill Preeclamptic; Comparison Between Two Technique
Unexpected difficult airway exposes the patient to serious morbidity and even mortality. The changes in pregnancy and preeclampsia increase the risk of difficult intubation. Proper anticipation affects the outcome and enhances safety, especially in critically ill patients. This research aims to assess the superiority of either 2 views or 5 …
PRIOR Study (Pre-eclampsia Risk In Oocyte Recipients)
The aim of this prospective observational cohort study is to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms behind and risk of pre-eclampsia in women pregnant after fertility treatment with oocyte donation. The participants are included in of of two cohorts. One includes women pregnant after oocyte donation whereas the other includes women pregnant …
Spironolactone to Improve Pregnancy-Associated Hypertension Trajectories
The hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (preeclampsia and gestational hypertension) are associated with increased long-term maternal risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Recent evidence suggests that activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor promotes ongoing susceptibility to hypertension in women following hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. In addition, women with overweight/obesity are at increased risk …
MSC Exosome Therapy for Post-Preeclampsia Endothelial Dysfunction
--- Why Is This Study Being Done? Women who have preeclampsia during pregnancy face a much higher risk of heart disease later in life. Preeclampsia is a serious pregnancy condition that causes high blood pressure and damages blood vessels. Even after the baby is born, the blood vessels do not …
AtorvaStatin Postpartum and Reduction of Cardiovascular risK
The objective is to conduct a double-blinded randomized controlled trial of atorvastatin vs. placebo among postpartum individuals with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, to improve cardiovascular risk score postpartum. For this, 76 individuals with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) will be randomized to atorvastatin 10mg or placebo, which will be started …
Vascular Biomarkers Predictive of the Progression From Gestational Hypertension to Preeclampsia in Pregnant Women
Hypertension during pregnancy remains a leading cause of maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. The frequency (5 to 10% of pregnancies) and potential severity of these diseases, both for the mother and the child, are reasons for standardizing and optimizing medical practices. The cause of hypertension during pregnancy and in …
