Fewer cases were submitted than predicted; many were submitted without documented symptoms. Cases may have been missed as symptoms were not documented or misdiagnosed reducing the calculated incidence.

Recording fluid balance and targeted blood tests to measure serum sodium levels may help an earlier diagnosis.

🌟 New in @BJOGTweets: A retrospective analysis found that 2 in 100 patients suffered major adverse cardiovascular events — such as pulmonary edema — following postpartum hemorrhage. Patients with MACE had more preeclampsia (30%) than those without (10%). pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41572582/

If you're prescribed/ advised to take aspirin in pregnancy, don’t hesitate to ask your care team for support!

If you’ve been told to take aspirin during pregnancy, it can help reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia, but only if you take it regularly. Some pregnant women and people don’t know why or how to take it. Pills can be hard to access, routines tough to build, and advice unclear.

Improving Aspirin Adherence for Effective Pre-Eclampsia Prevention obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… In our @BJOGT letter, we stress: aspirin can prevent pre-eclampsia only if taken. Trial adherence ≠ real-world use.

Parents‑to‑be: Measuring Placental Growth Factor (PlGF) around weeks 12–20 can flag pregnancies at higher risk for high blood‑pressure complications or early delivery. A normal result is a good sign (≈80–88 % chance of avoiding complications). Talk to your doctor.

In 157 pregnancies, low PlGF at 12–20 weeks tripled the odds of pre‑eclampsia (OR 2.8) and preterm birth (OR 3.63). Mean birthweight difference wasn’t statistically significant. Findings suggest early placental dysfunction; prospective validation is needed.
