We evaluated if maternal stress at admission to hospital for early-onset preeclampsia predicted admission-to-delivery intervals in days.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This prospective, longitudinal cohort-study involved 15 singleton pregnancies with a diagnosis of preeclampsia before 34\u00a0weeks gestation with intended expectant management. Upon hospital admission, maternal psychological stress was assessed with questionnaires and physiological stress with hair cortisol. Hair samples were analyzed in three hair segments representing the preconception period, and the first and second trimester of pregnancy.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Mean pregnancy prolongation was 16.2\u00a0days. Higher maternal anxiety at hospital admission significantly correlated with shorter admission-to-delivery intervals (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009\u2212\u00a00.54, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.04). Chronically increased hair cortisol concentrations (i.e. from preconception through the second trimester) of pregnancy tended to be related to shorter admission-to-delivery intervals (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;. 10).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Higher reported anxiety is, and chronically high hair cortisol tended to be, related with fewer days of prolongation from admission to delivery in women with early-onset preeclampsia. These findings suggest that maternal stress might be a potential determinant of disease progression. Future research into early innovative stress-reducing interventions for early-onset preeclampsia may shed more light on the etiology and treatment of this disease.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00404-022-06836-2","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,25]],"date-time":"2022-11-25T21:31:33Z","timestamp":1669411893000},"page":"1703-1711","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Maternal anxiety forecasts shorter prolongation of pregnancies complicated by early-onset preeclampsia"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"308","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5666-1049","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joris J.
