Genetic Risk and First-Trimester Cardiovascular Health Predict Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy in Nulliparous Individuals | JACC

In this podcast, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses a groundbreaking study from JACC that explores how genetic risk and cardiovascular health in the first trimester of pregnancy predict hypertensive disorders, such as preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, and eclampsia. The research highlights the potential of improving cardiovascular health early in pregnancy as a preventive measure, especially for those at high genetic risk, and calls for more accessible, community-based interventions to better support maternal health.
