Preeclampsia poses severe risks on both mother and baby during pregnancy. A large body of evidence now indicates that a history of preeclampsia also increases the risk of disease well beyond the index pregnancy. Studies show that mothers are at increased risk of cardiovascular, renal and neurological diseases. Babies are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity, neurodevelopmental impairments and mental health disorders, across childhood, adolescence and adulthood. There is critical importance in understanding the pathophysiology of these outcomes to uncover appropriate therapeutic targets.
