ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the pregnancy outcome of patients with preeclampsia (PE). Methods The data of 26 206 pregnant and lying-in women were retrospective analyzed who gave birth in Daping Hospital of the Army Medical University from Jan. 1, 2013 to Apr. 30, 2019, diagnosed with the 8th and 9th version of gynecology and obstetrics textbook. Excluding 62 cases of diabetes combined pregnancy, 445 cases of hypothyroidism combined pregnancy, 180 cases of polyhydramnios, 1592 cases of macrosomia (≥4 kg), 89 cases of chronic hypertension with PE, and 629 cases of multifetation. The remaining 23 209 cases, according to the final diagnosis, were divided into PE group (532 cases) which was divided again into mild-PE group (134 cases) and severe-PE groups (398 cases), and the 22 677 remainders acted as the control group. The age, gestational weeks, number of births, mode of delivery, pregnancy complications and neonatal status in the three groups were compared, and the thyroid function among the groups was analyzed in detail. Results The proportion of elderly parturients was higher in both mild-PE group (29.2%) and severe-PE groups (20.6%) than that in control group (12.4%). The rates of premature delivery and cesarean section were higher in both mild-PE group (19.7% and 55.0%) and severe-PE groups (70.1% and 94.2%) than those in control group (10.0% and 48.2%). The incidences of hypothyroidism during pregnancy, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and infants younger than gestational age were higher in both mild-PE group (26.9%, 10.5% and 7.5%) and severe-PE groups (23.9%, 9.3% and 22.1%) than those in control group (17.5%, 3.5% and 2.9%); The incidences of placental abruption and stillborn foetus were obviously higher in severe-PE group (3.8% and 7.3%) than those in control group (0.6% and 0.7%). The incidence of gestational diabetes was significantly higher in mild-PE group (41.8%) than that in control group (30.0%), and of umbilical cord around neck was significantly lower in severe-PE group (17.6%) than that in control group (25.1%). Conclusions The incidences of complications and therapeutic premature delivery in PE patients is increased. Hypothyroidism during pregnancy is a potential risk factor and should be strenuously supervised.
