Abstract:While the pathophysiology of pre‐eclampsia has been postulated as being secondary to placental dysfunction, a cardiac origin has more recently been proposed. Although an association between fetal congenital cardiovascular disease and pre‐eclampsia has been demonstrated, no precise pathophysiologic mechanism for this association has been described. This review highlights the current biophysical (including echocardiography and Doppler indices) and biochemical (including proteomic, metabolomic and genetic/transcr… Show more
