Abstract:Background/Objectives: Gestational hypertensive disorders (GHD) pose significant maternal and fetal health risks during pregnancy. Preconception physical exercise has been associated with a lower incidence of GHD, but insights into the cardiovascular mechanisms remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of preconception physical exercise on the complete cardiovascular functions of women at risk for GHD in a subsequent pregnancy. Methods: A non-invasive hemodynamics assessment of arteries, veins, a… Show more
