Abstract:
:Objective To characterize cumulative physiologic dysfunction (CPD) in pregnancy as a measure of the biological effects of chronic stress and to examine its associations with gestational age and birth weight. Methods Women ≤28 weeks gestation were enrolled from obstetric clinics in Rochester, NY and followed through their delivery. CPD parameters included total cholesterol, Interleukin 6 (IL-6), high sensitivity-C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, body mass index at <14 weeks gestation, glucose tolerance, and urinary albumin collected in the third trimester. Linear regression was used to estimate the association between physiologic dysfunction and birth weight and gestational age, respectively (N = 111). Results CPD scores ranged from 0 to 6, out of a total of 8 parameters (Mean 2.09; SD = 1.42). Three-fourths of the participants had a CPD score of 3.0 or lower. The mean birth weight was 3397 g (SD = 522.89), and the mean gestational age was 39.64 weeks (SD = 1.08). CPD was not significantly associated with either birth weight or gestational age (p = 0.42 and p = 0.44, respectively). Conclusion CPD measured at >28 weeks was not associated with birth weight or gestational age. Refinement of a CPD score for pregnancy is needed, taking into consideration both the component parameters and clinical and pre-clinical cut-points for risk scoring.
