Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, respiratory outcomes and atopy in childhood.

TL;DR: The Avon Longitudinal study of parents and children as mentioned in this paper examined associations of maternal gestational hypertension, hypertension before pregnancy and pre-eclampsia with wheezing at 18 months, wheez and asthma at 7 years and lung function at 8-9 years, after controlling for potential confounders.

Testing a Capacity-Load Model for Hypertension: Disentangling Early and Late Growth Effects on Childhood Blood Pressure in a Prospective Birth Cohort

TL;DR: High metabolic load relative to metabolic capacity is associated with increased BP, and the contribution of different growth and body composition components to BP variance is demonstrated to clarify the developmental aetiology of hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Data on trajectories of measures of cardiovascular health in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC).

TL;DR: This article describes the data used in analyses and modelled sex-specific change in 11 key measures of cardiovascular health from birth/early childhood to age 18 years in a British birth cohort study, the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC).
Journal ArticleDOI

Four Genetic Loci Influencing Electrocardiographic Indices of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy

TL;DR: A large-scale gene-centric association analysis of 4 commonly measured indices of ECG-LVH provides novel insights into the genetic determination of ECGs and could help to improve the understanding of the mechanisms determining this prognostically important trait.
Journal ArticleDOI
