This week we enter into the worlds of fetal cardiology and preventative cardiology to review a recent work from Professor Paul Leeson of Oxford University on the topic of pregnancy induced hypertension and the impact this plays on the cardiovascular health of the offspring. How does this form of HTN affect the structure of the RV and LV in the offspring and why might this explain the increased rates of adult HTN in the offspring of women who were hypertensive during pregnancy? Dr. Leeson provides many interesting insights and context this week. doi: 10.1161/JAHA.119.014586
