Analyses were limited to individuals who had an echocardiogram during any trimester. Cardiac changes were categorized as normal morphology, concentric remodeling, eccentric hypertrophy, and concentric hypertrophy according to the American Society of Echocardiography guidelines. Our primary outcome was early-onset superimposed preeclampsia defined as delivery at less than 34 weeks' gestation. Other secondary outcomes were also examined. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated, controlling for prespecified covariates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results\u2003Of the 168 individuals who delivered from 2010 to 2020, 57 (33.9%) had normal morphology, 54 (32.1%) had concentric remodeling, 9 (5.4%) had eccentric hypertrophy, and 48 (28.6%) had concentric hypertrophy. Non-Hispanic black individuals presented over 76% of the cohort. Rates of the primary outcome in individuals with normal morphology, concentric remodeling, eccentric hypertrophy, and concentric hypertrophy were 15.8, 37.0, 22.2, and 41.7%, respectively (p\u2009=\u20090.01). Compared with individuals with normal morphology, individuals with concentric remodeling were more likely to have the primary outcome (aOR: 3.28; 95% CI: 1.28\u20138.39), fetal growth restriction (crude OR: 2.98; 95% CI: 1.05\u20138.43), and iatrogenic preterm delivery &lt;34 weeks' gestation (aOR: 2.72; 95% CI: 1.15\u20136.40). Compared with individuals with normal morphology, individuals with concentric hypertrophy were more likely to have the primary outcome (aOR: 4.16; 95% CI: 1.57\u201310.97), superimposed preeclampsia with severe features at any gestational age (aOR: 4.75; 95% CI: 1.94\u201311.62), iatrogenic preterm delivery &lt;34 weeks' gestation (aOR: 3.60; 95% CI: 1.47\u20138.81), and neonatal intensive care unit admission (aOR: 4.82; 95% CI: 1.90\u201312.21).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion\u2003Concentric remodeling and concentric hypertrophy were associated with increased odds of early-onset superimposed preeclampsia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Key Points<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2096-5114","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,22]],"date-time":"2023-05-22T19:07:52Z","timestamp":1684782472000},"page":"1163-1170","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Concentric Cardiac Remodeling and Hypertrophy in Pregnant Individuals with Chronic Hypertension"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Elizabeth A.","family":"Seagraves","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Norfolk, Virginia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dana I.","family":"Baraki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas J.","family":"Donaldson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Temple University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carole","family":"Barake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John E.","family":"Brush","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Norfolk, Virginia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alfred Z.","family":"Abuhamad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Norfolk, Virginia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tetsuya","family":"Kawakita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Norfolk, Virginia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","first-page":"e25","article-title":"ACOG Practice Bulletin No. 203.
