In analyses adjusted for sociodemographic factors, HDP exposure was associated with higher body mass index (adjusted \u03b2, 2.80; 95% CI, 1.07-4.53), higher diastolic blood pressure (adjusted \u03b2, 2.29; 95% CI, 0.17-4.41), and higher glycated hemoglobin (HbA\n 1c<\/jats:sub>\n ) level (adjusted \u03b2, 0.21; 95% CI, 0.02-0.41) in early adulthood. PTB was associated with higher HbA\n 1c<\/jats:sub>\n level (adjusted \u03b2, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.15-0.43). GD exposure was associated with a lower LE8 blood pressure score (adjusted \u03b2, \u22126.59; 95% CI, \u221213.95 to \u22120.16). HDP exposure was associated with higher mean carotid intima-media thickness (adjusted \u03b2, 0.02; 95% CI, 0.01-0.03) and lower carotid grayscale median (adjusted \u03b2, \u22123.68; 95% CI, \u22126.30 to \u22121.05). Exposure to GD was associated with higher mean carotid intima-media thickness (adjusted \u03b2, 0.02; 95% CI, 0.00-0.04).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title>\n In this longitudinal cohort study of mother-child dyads enrolled at the child\u2019s birth, exposure to APOs during gestation, particularly HDP, was associated with suboptimal CVH and arterial injury among offspring in early adulthood. The findings suggest optimizing pregnancy health may support offspring CVH into early adulthood.<\/jats:p>\n
