Vascular dysfunction in women with recurrent pregnancy loss: Possible association with antiphospholipid antibodies.

Objective: Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.

Methods: In this retrospective study, 569 women with RPL and 55 healthy women who had never experienced pregnancy loss were recruited.
