Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are associated with long-term maternal risks for cardiovascular disease for reasons that remain incompletely understood. METHODS The HCHS/SOL (Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos), a multi-center community-based cohort of Hispanic/Latino adults recruited 2008 to 2011, was used to evaluate the associations of history of de novo HDP (gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia) with echocardiographic measures of cardiac structure and function in Hispanic/Latina women with ≥1 prior pregnancy and the proportion of association mediated by current hypertension (>140/90 mm Hg or antihypertensive therapy). RESULTS. The study cohort included 5168 Hispanic/Latina women with an average age (SD) of 58.7 (9.7) years at time of echocardiogram. Prior de novo HDP was reported by 724 (14%) of the women studied and was associated with lower left ventricle (LV) ejection fraction -0.66 (95% confidence interval [CI], -1.21 to -0.11), higher LV relative wall thickness 0.09 (95% CI, 0-0.18), and 1.39 (95% CI, 1.02-1.89) higher risk of abnormal LV geometry after adjusting for blood pressure and other confounders. The proportion of the association mediated by current hypertension between HDP and LV ejection fraction was 0.09 (95% CI, 0.03-0.45), LV relative wall thickness was 0.28 (95% CI, 0.16-0.51), abnormal LV geometry was 0.14 (95% CI, 0.12-0.48), concentric left ventricular hypertrophy was 0.31 (95% CI, 0.19-0.86), and abnormal LV diastolic dysfunction was 0.58 (95% CI, 0.26-0.79). CONCLUSIONS. In a large cohort of Hispanic/Latina women those with history of de novo HDP had detectable and measurable subclinical alterations in cardiac structure and both systolic and diastolic dysfunction that were only partially mediated by current hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether differential exposure to an adverse maternal fetal environment partially explains disparate outcomes in infants with major congenital heart disease (CHD). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study utilizing a population-based administrative California database (2011-2017). Primary exposure: Race/ethnicity. Primary mediator: Adverse maternal fetal environment (evidence of maternal metabolic syndrome and/or maternal placental syndrome). OUTCOMES Composite of 1-year mortality or severe morbidity and days alive out of hospital in the first year of life (DAOOH). Mediation analyses determined the percent contributions of mediators on pathways between race/ethnicity and outcomes after adjusting for CHD severity. RESULTS Included were 2747 non-Hispanic White infants (reference group), 5244 Hispanic, and 625 non-Hispanic Black infants. Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black infants had a higher risk for composite outcome (crude OR: 1.18; crude OR: 1.25, respectively) and fewer DAOOH (-6 & -12 days, respectively). Compared with the reference group, Hispanic infants had higher maternal metabolic syndrome exposure (43% vs 28%, OR: 1.89), and non-Hispanic Black infants had higher maternal metabolic syndrome (44% vs 28%; OR: 1.97) and maternal placental syndrome exposure (18% vs 12%; OR, 1.66). Both maternal metabolic syndrome exposure (OR: 1.21) and maternal placental syndrome exposure (OR: 1.56) were related to composite outcome and fewer DAOOH (-25 & -16 days, respectively). Adverse maternal fetal environment explained 25% of the disparate relationship between non-Hispanic Black race and composite outcome and 18% of the disparate relationship between Hispanic ethnicity and composite outcome. Adverse maternal fetal environment explained 16% (non-Hispanic Black race) and 21% (Hispanic ethnicity) of the association with DAOOH. CONCLUSIONS Increased exposure to adverse maternal fetal environment contributes to racial and ethnic disparities in major CHD outcomes.
