What is Fetal Cardiac Remodeling and Dysfunction Is Associated with Both Preeclampsia and Fetal Growth Restriction about?
## Background: Preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction share some pathophysiologic features and are both associated with placental insufficiency. fetal cardiac remodeling has been described extensively in fetal growth restriction, whereas little is known about preeclampsia with a normally grown fetus. ## Objective: To describe fetal cardiac structure and function in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and/or fetal growth restriction as compared with uncomplicated pregnancies. ## Study design: This was a prospective, observational study including pregnancies complicated by normotensive fetal growth restriction (n=36), preeclampsia with a normally grown fetus (n=35), preeclampsia with fetal growth restriction (preeclampsia with a normally grown fetus-fetal growth restriction, n=42), and 111 uncomplicated pregnancies matched by gestational age at ultrasound. fetal echocardiography was performed at diagnosis for cases and recruitment for uncomplicated pregnancies. cord blood concentrations of b-type natriuretic peptide and troponin i were measured at delivery. univariate and multiple regression analysis were conducted. ## Results: Pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and/or fe
