Women who have had multiple miscarriages are more susceptible to heart disease

　　A study shows that people who have had multiple miscarriages female There appears to be an increased risk of heart disease. The study, published in the Journal of the British Medical Association, found that women who had had more than one miscarriage were 50% more likely to be hospitalized for heart disease or a real heart attack than women who had never had a miscarriage.

　　Smith, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said this, along with other research, suggests that pregnancy complications may be a problem for women in the long term. healthy An indication of a problem. Pregnancy complications may be underlying cardiovascular disease the first kind clinical Manifestation, it will eventually manifest as symptomatic heart disease.

　　Smith and colleagues studied data from 129,290 Scottish women who gave birth for the first time between 1981 and 1985, examining whether they had had previous miscarriages and who subsequently developed heart disease. Ultimately, they found that 50% of those who had had three or more miscarriages had twice the risk of heart disease as those who had not had one, but because the number of women who fit the latter condition was too small, the researchers could not yet conclude whether the latter was true. The researchers hope that further research will integrate a woman's reproductive history into the assessment of her total cardiovascular risk, and more research is needed to identify the mechanisms involved to develop effective interventions.
