The Ongoing Relationship Between Offspring Congenital Heart Disease and Preeclampsia Across Pregnancies.

Background: Prior literature has described an association between preeclampsia and offspring congenital heart disease (CHD), while suggesting there may be a stronger relationship in individuals with early preeclampsia.

Objectives: The authors sought to explore the relationship between offspring CHD and preeclampsia among pregnancies in a population-based study.

Methods: Retrospective cohort study all singleton pregnancies delivered in the state of California 2000 to 2012.

Perinatal Stressors and Consequences for Neonates with Critical Congenital Heart Disease.

Introduction: The prenatal diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) is a traumatic event that can cause expectant parents to experience anxiety, depression, and toxic stress. Prenatal exposure to stress may impact neonatal postoperative outcomes. In addition, expectant parents may have other psychosocial stressors that may compound maternal stress.

Adverse Perinatal and Neonatal Outcomes among Adolescent Pregnancies in the United States.

Objective: Despite a downward trend in recent years, adolescent pregnancies in the United States remain higher than any other western country. Adolescent pregnancies have been inconsistently associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. The objective of this study is to investigate the association between adolescent pregnancies and adverse perinatal and neonatal outcomes in the United States.

Preventing eviction during pregnancy: a cost-effectiveness analysis of a theoretical safety-net program.

Background: Eviction during pregnancy has been shown to be associated with adverse birth outcomes. A safety net program focused on covering the costs of rent during pregnancy may aid in preventing adverse complications.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of a program covering the cost of rent to prevent eviction during pregnancy.
