Abstract
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are common complications associated with maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Insights gained from long-term cohort studies have revealed that women with a history of HDP are predisposed to recurrent HDP in subsequent pregnancies and face heightened risks for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases later in life. Pregnancy is a unique condition that overloads maternal cardiac and metabolic functions, and is recognized as a "maternal stress test" for future cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Pregnancy and postpartum period provide a valuable opportunity for identifying women with underlying and unrecognized cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors. Establishing an effective postpartum healthcare program for women who have experienced HDP is crucial in reducing the future risk of health complications. Postpartum care consists of supportive care for both mothers and children, including not only the assessment of physical and psychological well-being but also long-term postpartum preventive health management. Interpregnancy care is a continuum from postpartum care and includes supportive care to prepare for future pregnancies. Various initiatives across nations have been initiated to establish follow-up programs for women with a history of HDP; however, sufficient evidence of the impact of such programs is not available. Substantial challenges persist in establishing an efficient postpartum follow-up program, including educational strategies, selection of effective lifestyle interventions, and collaboration among various healthcare providers. This review outlines the postpartum and interpregnancy care of women who have experienced HDP as well as the current status and challenges of related healthcare initiatives in Japan.

Abstract
The prevention of pre-eclampsia is difficult due to the syndromic nature and multiple underlying mechanisms of this severe complication of pregnancy. The current clinical distinction between early- and late-onset disease, although clinically useful, does not reflect the true nature and complexity of the pathologic processes leading to pre-eclampsia. The current gaps in knowledge on the heterogeneous molecular pathways of this syndrome and the lack of adequate, specific diagnostic methods are major obstacles to early screening and tailored preventive strategies. The development of novel diagnostic tools for detecting the activation of the identified disease pathways would enable early, accurate screening and personalized preventive therapies. We implemented a holistic approach that includes the utilization of different proteomic profiling methods of maternal plasma samples collected from various ethnic populations and the application of systems biology analysis to plasma proteomic, maternal demographic, clinical characteristic, and placental histopathologic data. This approach enabled the identification of four molecular subclasses of pre-eclampsia in which distinct and shared disease mechanisms are activated. The current review summarizes the results and conclusions from these studies and the research and clinical implications of our findings.

Ninan K, Ali R, Morfaw F, McDonald SD. Prevention of pre-eclampsia with aspirin: A systematic review of guidelines and evaluation of the quality of recommendation evidence. Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2023; 161:26-39. [PMID: 36129381 DOI: 10.1002/ijgo.14471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2022] [Revised: 08/19/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence has shown significant benefits of aspirin for preventing pre-eclampsia. OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to systematically review recommendations from clinical practice guidelines and other recommendation documents on aspirin for the prevention of pre-eclampsia. SEARCH STRATEGY Ten databases were searched for statements from December 1, 2013, to January 1, 2022. SELECTION CRITERIA Without language restrictions, the most recent version of documents was considered. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two authors independently extracted recommendations. Guideline quality was assessed using a modified AGREE-II instrument and the AGREE-REX tool. MAIN RESULTS Out of 48 statements on the prevention of pre-eclampsia, 46 had recommendations on use of aspirin. Of them, 39 were supported by evidence from systematic reviews or randomized controlled trials. Three statements reported aspirin's significant reductions in preterm pre-eclampsia and one in perinatal death. Concerning quality, 41% of statements were rated as high quality in all domains of the AGREE-II tool, 15% were rated high quality in all domains of the AGREE-REX tool, and 11% were rated high quality in all domains on both tools. CONCLUSIONS While 96% of statements advocated for use of aspirin, only 9% reported a significant reduction in preterm pre-eclampsia or perinatal death. Based on the AGREE tools, future statements could use methodological improvement.

Molecular subclasses of preeclampsia characterized by a longitudinal maternal proteomics study: distinct biomarkers, disease pathways and options for prevention. J Perinat Med 2023; 51:51-68.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The heterogeneous nature of preeclampsia is a major obstacle to early screening and prevention, and a molecular taxonomy of disease is needed. We have previously identified four subclasses of preeclampsia based on first-trimester plasma proteomic profiles. Herein, we expanded this approach by using a more comprehensive panel of proteins profiled in longitudinal samples. METHODS Proteomic data collected longitudinally from plasma samples of women who developed preeclampsia (n=109) and of controls (n=90) were available from our previous report on 1,125 proteins. Consensus clustering was performed to identify subgroups of patients with preeclampsia based on data from five gestational-age intervals by using select interval-specific features. Demographic, clinical, and proteomic differences among clusters were determined. Differentially abundant proteins were used to identify cluster-specific perturbed KEGG pathways. RESULTS Four molecular clusters with different clinical phenotypes were discovered by longitudinal proteomic profiling. Cluster 1 involves metabolic and prothrombotic changes with high rates of early-onset preeclampsia and small-for-gestational-age neonates; Cluster 2 includes maternal anti-fetal rejection mechanisms and recurrent preeclampsia cases; Cluster 3 is associated with extracellular matrix regulation and comprises cases of mostly mild, late-onset preeclampsia; and Cluster 4 is characterized by angiogenic imbalance and a high prevalence of early-onset disease. CONCLUSIONS This study is an independent validation and further refining of molecular subclasses of preeclampsia identified by a different proteomic platform and study population. The results lay the groundwork for novel diagnostic and personalized tools of prevention.
