Main Findings
Overall, women with pre-eclampsia/eclampsia in pregnancy significantly
increased the future occurrence rate of stroke, both ischemic and
hemorrhagic stroke, even after 10 to 15 years. The risks of hemorrhagic
stroke at different follow up periods were all higher than that of
ischemic stroke, with different risk time trends. The peak of ischemic
stroke risk was 1-3 years after childbirth; while for the peak of
hemorrhagic stroke risk was 3-5 years after childbirth.
