In a comprehensive nationwide cohort study spanning 2013 to 2018, Camille Mettler and team looked into the pregnancy risks faced by women with Systemic Vasculitides (SV), shedding light on potential complications and identifying associated risk factors. The outcomes were published in Arthritis & Rheumatology.
Systemic vasculitides, typically impacting individuals over 50, have been found to affect pregnant women, presenting challenges such as hypertensive disorders and preterm birth (PTB). The study was conducted using the French health insurance data warehouse and meticulously examined 3,155,723 pregnancies, including 646 pregnancies in women with SV, matched against 3,230 controls.
