Short stature in small-for-gestational-age offspring born to mothers with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy
To investigate the incidence and risk factors of small-for-gestational age (SGA) short stature at 2 and 3 years of age in SGA offspring born to women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). We examined 226 women with HDP whose respective SGA offspring were delivered. Eighty offspring (41.2%)...

Summary: | To investigate the incidence and risk factors of small-for-gestational age (SGA) short stature at 2 and 3 years of age in SGA offspring born to women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP).
We examined 226 women with HDP whose respective SGA offspring were delivered.
Eighty offspring (41.2%) were diagnosed with SGA short stature. The prematurity before 32 weeks of gestation was the most significant factor for catch-up growth failure.
In SGA offspring born to women with HDP, SGA short stature incidence was high, and the risk factor was prematurity before 32 weeks of gestation. |
