Prenatal exposure to maternal hypertension and higher body mass index and risks of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders during childhood
Our findings suggest that combined exposure to different subtypes of HDP and higher prepregnancy BMI have distinct impacts on the mental health of offspring. Notably, a more pronounced effect was observed in cases where chronic hypertension and obesity coexisted. Future research should focus on exploring dose-related relationships rather than amalgamating maternal HDP for investigating the offspring outcomes.
