Effect of premature birth on long-term systolic blood pressure variability in women. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to explore how premature birth (PTB) impacts long-term variability in systolic blood pressure (SBP) among women.
  • Researchers analyzed SBP data from 1,974 pregnant women, comparing those with PTB to those born at term, calculating measures like standard deviation and coefficient of variation.
  • Results indicated that women with PTB had higher SBP variability, suggesting PTB may increase the risk for cardiovascular issues later in life, highlighting the importance of monitoring women's health during and after pregnancy.

Article Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of premature birth (PTB) on long-term systolic blood pressure (SBP) variability (SBPV) in women.

Methods: A total of 1974 pregnant women were divided into PTB group and non-PTB (NPTB) group. The SBP standard deviation (SSD) was calculated by four annual SBP values measured in 2006-2007, 2008-2009, 2010-2011, and 2012-2013. SBP coefficient of variation (SCV) was calculated by dividing SSD with mean SBP. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influence of PTB on long-time SSD and SCV in women.

Results: SSD and SCV of the PTB group (10.95 mm Hg and 9.05%, respectively) were higher than those of the NPTB group (9.81 mm Hg and 8.23%, respectively), but there were no significant differences (p>0.05). The number of patients with SSD >9.87 mm Hg and SCV >8.28% in the PTB and NPTB groups was 57 (51.40%) and 62 (55.90%) and 747 (40.10%) and 841 (45.10%), respectively. The number of patients with SSD >9.87 mm Hg and SCV >8.28% in the PTB group was significantly higher than that in the NPTB group (p<0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting other risk factors, the PTB group was at a risk of SSD and SCV elevations with OR values of 1.60 (95% CI: 1.06-2.40) and 1.64 (95% CI: 1.10-2.45), respectively.

Conclusion: PTB is a risk factor of long-time SBPV in women, which might be a potential reason for cardiovascular events. Pregnancy may be an important opportunity for early identification of women at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life.
