Meta-Analysis of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Offspring of Preeclampsia Pregnancies
Abstract
This study aimed to assess cardiovascular risk factors in the offspring of preeclampsia (PE) pregnancies. PubMed, Web of Science, Ovid, and other foreign language databases, as well as SinoMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and China Science and Technology Journal Databases, were searched. The case-control studies on cardiovascular risk factors in the offspring of PE pregnancies from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2019 were collected. A random-effects model or a fixed-effects model was used, and RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis to determine the OR value and 95%CI of each cardiovascular risk factor. A total of 16 documents were included in this research, all of which were case-control studies, with a total of 4046 cases in the experimental group and 31,505 in the control group. The meta-analysis that was conducted demonstrated that SBP [MD = 1.51, 95%CI (1.15, 1.88)] and DBP [MD = 1.90, 95%CI (1.69, 2.10)] values in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented an elevation relative to the non-PE pregnancy offspring group. The total cholesterol value in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented an elevation relative to the non-PE pregnancy offspring group [MD = 0.11, 95%CI (0.08, 0.13)]. The low-density lipoprotein cholesterol value in the PE pregnancy offspring group was comparable to that in the non-PE pregnancy offspring group [MD = 0.01, 95%CI (−0.02, 0.05)]. The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol value in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented an elevation relative to the non-PE pregnancy offspring group [MD = 0.02, 95%CI (0.01, 0.03)]. The non-HDL cholesterol value in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented an elevation relative to the non-PE pregnancy offspring group [MD = 0.16, 95%CI (0.13, 0.19)]. The triglycerides [MD = −0.02, 95%CI (−0.03, −0.01)] and glucose [MD = −0.08, 95%CI (−0.09, −0.07)] values in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented a depletion relative to the non-PE pregnancy group. The insulin value in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented a depletion relative to the non-PE pregnancy offspring group [MD = −0.21, 95%CI (−0.32, −0.09)]. The BMI value in the PE pregnancy offspring group presented an elevation relative to the non-PE pregnancy offspring group [MD = 0.42, 95%CI (0.27, 0.57)]. In conclusion, dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, and increased BMI occur postpartum with PE, all of which are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases.
