Background: Maternal cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of maternal mortality. Data on anaesthetic management in patients with CVD is limited.

Methods: This ten-year retrospective cohort study of 508 pregnancies in women with CVD, stratified by modified World Health Organization (mWHO) risk category, compared lowrisk (mWHO I-II) (n = 323) and high-risk (mWHO II to III-IV) (n = 185) groups to a control obstetric population (n = 55,153).

A central paradigm in cardiac biology is the reactivation of the fetal gene programme in the adult heart in response to stress. This so-called 'fetal gene hypothesis' was first proposed almost 40 years ago following the observation that certain fetal contractile protein isoforms were re-expressed in hypertrophied ventricles in the rodent heart in response to haemodynamic overload. Consequently, this concept was broadly adopted, and activation of the fetal gene programme became synonymous in the literature with the cardiac stress response.

Excess testosterone (T) exposure from early to mid-gestation (days 30-90) leads to sexually dimorphic adverse cardiac left ventricular (LV) programming at fetal day 90 (term 147 days). Whether this sexually dimorphic impact is a direct effect of T or reprogramming that persists beyond early fetal life is unknown. We hypothesized that adverse sex-specific cardiac outcomes seen in early fetal life will persist in late gestational fetuses.

Objectives: To explore the acute effects of a heavy-load resistance protocol and exercise in the supine position on fetal heart rate (FHR) and uteroplacental blood flow.

Method: In this experimental laboratory study, 48 healthy pregnant athletes (elite: n=7; recreational: n=41) completed 3×8 repetitions with one repetition in reserve in sumo deadlift, bench press and incline bench press. FHR and umbilical and uterine artery pulsatility index (PI) were assessed before and after exercise.
