Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy increase risk for myocardial infarction: a population-based study

In this podcast, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses a study revealing that women with hypertensive disorders during pregnancy face a higher risk of early coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. The findings emphasize the need for proactive cardiovascular monitoring and tailored prevention strategies, as these women are more susceptible to both obstructive and non-obstructive heart conditions later in life.
