Transcription of Pre-eclampsia: pathophysiology and clinical implications
{{id}} {{{paragraph}}}
Interactions between senescence of the placenta and a maternal genetic predisposition to cardiovascular and metabolic disease. While often presented as distinct sub-types, in reality the balance between the placental and maternal causations most likely varies among indi-viduals across the spectrum of gestational age at clinical presentation. We discuss the pathophysiology in the light of recent advances of our understanding of the maternal-fetal interactions that take place in the first weeks fol-lowing implantation, and emphasize the importance of the endometrium during the pre- and peri-conceptional periods for pregnancy and selection criteriaA PubMed search (pre- eclampsia OR preeclampsia) AND (placenta OR placental)] at the end of 2018 with no date restrictions yielded 10 611 citations.
