Prepregnancy GLP ‐ 1RA Exposure and Risk of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy Among Women With Obesity and Diabetes
Authors' conclusion
Prepregnancy GLP-1RA exposure was associated with higher prevalence of PE and cesarean delivery in this cohort. Larger studies are needed to confirm these findings and clarify underlying mechanisms.
Study context
- Population
- Pregnant women with preexisting obesity and diabetes29 exposed matched
- Exposure
- Prepregnancy GLP-1 RA exposure vs no exposure
- Exposedn = 31
- Outcome
- Preeclampsia (PE)
Methodological detailselectronic health records, propensity score matched
- Electronic health records
- Propensity score matched
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Preeclampsia
- Exposed vs Unexposed controls: P = 0.023 (12 months)
- Exposed vs Unexposed controls: P = 0.018 (24 months)
- Propensity score matched
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Secondary outcomes
| Outcome | P value |
|---|---|
| Cesarean deliveryMore frequent with exposure | P < 0.05 |
Neonatal outcomes
- No differences in neonatal outcomes after matching
