A call to action on pregnancy-related lifestyle interventions to reduce cardiovascular risk in the offspring. A Scientific Statement of the European Association of Preventive Cardiology of the ESC
Moholdt T, Aye C, Bahls M, Crispi F, Ghossein-Doha C, Goossens E, et al.
Eur J Prev Cardiol . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39993159
Adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as gestational diabetes, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, fetal growth restriction, and prematurity, can increase the risk of future cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the offspring. This document...

First diagnosis of severe coarctation of the aorta necessitating percutaneous intervention during pregnancy: a case report
Van Berendoncks A, Mannaerts D, Berzenji L, Jacquemyn Y, Hendriks J
Eur Heart J Case Rep . 2024 Oct; 8(10):ytae547. PMID: 39439782
Background: Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a common congenital heart defect that affects about 3-4 in every 10 000 live births. Despite clear signs on clinical examination, the diagnosis...

Unveiling women's lived experiences with care provided by a pregnancy heart team: A qualitative phenomenological study
Vanharen Y, Knollenburg L, Van Berendoncks A, Mannaerts D, Goossens E
Int J Gynaecol Obstet . 2024 Oct; 168(3):1109-1116. PMID: 39412741
Objective: The purpose of this study was to gain an in-depth understanding of the lived experiences of women with CVD regarding their care by a pregnancy heart team (PHT) during...

MicroRNAs targeting VEGF are related to vascular dysfunction in preeclampsia
Witvrouwen I, Mannaerts D, Ratajczak J, Boeren E, Faes E, Van Craenenbroeck A, et al.
Biosci Rep . 2021 Jul; 41(8). PMID: 34318873
In preeclampsia (PE), pre-existent maternal endothelial dysfunction leads to impaired placentation and vascular maladaptation. The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway is essential in the placentation process and VEGF expression...

The Effect of Exercise Training During Pregnancy to Improve Maternal Vascular Health: Focus on Gestational Hypertensive Disorders
Witvrouwen I, Mannaerts D, Van Berendoncks A, Jacquemyn Y, Van Craenenbroeck E
Front Physiol . 2020 May; 11:450. PMID: 32457655
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, including gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia, occur in up to 10% of pregnancies and are associated with increased life-long cardiovascular risk. Physical activity improves cardiovascular health in...
6.
Low-flow mediated constriction as a marker of endothelial function in healthy pregnancy and preeclampsia: A pilot study
Mannaerts D, Faes E, Cornette J, Gyselaers W, Spaanderman M, Goovaerts I, et al.
Pregnancy Hypertens . 2019 Sep; 17:75-81. PMID: 31487661
Objectives: Overwhelming clinical evidence exists on disturbed vascular and endothelial function in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia (PE). In a non-pregnant (NP) population, L-FMC (low-flow mediated constriction) provides insight in the...
7.
Oxidative stress in healthy pregnancy and preeclampsia is linked to chronic inflammation, iron status and vascular function
Mannaerts D, Faes E, Cos P, Briede J, Gyselaers W, Cornette J, et al.
PLoS One . 2018 Sep; 13(9):e0202919. PMID: 30204759
Background: During normal pregnancy, placental oxidative stress (OS) is present during all three trimesters and is necessary to obtain normal cell function. However, if OS reaches a certain level, pregnancy...
8.
Oxidative stress and endothelial function in normal pregnancy versus pre-eclampsia, a combined longitudinal and case control study
Mannaerts D, Faes E, Gielis J, Van Craenenbroeck E, Cos P, Spaanderman M, et al.
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth . 2018 Feb; 18(1):60. PMID: 29482567
Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is related to an impaired endothelial function. Endothelial dysfunction accounts for altered vascular reactivity, activation of the coagulation cascade and loss of vascular integrity. Impaired endothelial function...

Are neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and/or mean platelet volume (MPV) clinically useful as predictive parameters for preeclampsia?
Mannaerts D, Heyvaert S, De Cordt C, Macken C, Loos C, Jacquemyn Y
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med . 2017 Nov; 32(9):1412-1419. PMID: 29179639
Objective: Preeclampsia (PE) is a severe pregnancy complication with significant maternal and neonatal morbi-mortality resulting in high health care costs. Prevention, mainly based on the administration of acetylsalicylic acid, is...

Flow-mediated dilation and peripheral arterial tonometry are disturbed in preeclampsia and reflect different aspects of endothelial function
Mannaerts D, Faes E, Goovaerts I, Stoop T, Cornette J, Gyselaers W, et al.
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol . 2017 Aug; 313(5):R518-R525. PMID: 28794106
Endothelial function and arterial stiffness are known to be altered in preeclamptic pregnancies. Previous studies have shown conflicting results regarding the best technique for assessing vascular function in pregnancy. In...
