A global view of hypertensive disorders and diabetes mellitus during pregnancy
Open accessAbstract
Two important maternal cardiometabolic disorders (CMDs), hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) (including pre-eclampsia) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), result in a large disease burden for pregnant individuals worldwide. A global consensus has not been reached about the diagnostic criteria for HDP and GDM, making it challenging to assess differences in their disease burden between countries and areas. However, both diseases show an unevenly distributed disease burden for regions with a low income or middle income, or low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), or regions with lower sociodemographic and human development indexes. In addition to many common clinical, demographic and behavioural risk factors, the development and clinical consequences of maternal CMDs are substantially influenced by the social determinants of health, such as systemic marginalization. Although progress has been occurring in the early screening and management of HDP and GDM, the accuracy and long-term effects of such screening and management programmes are still under investigation. In addition to pharmacological therapies and lifestyle modifications at the individual level, a multilevel approach in conjunction with multisector partnership should be adopted to tackle the public health issues and health inequity resulting from maternal CMDs. The current COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted health service delivery, with women with maternal CMDs being particularly vulnerable to this public health crisis. Two maternal cardiometabolic disorders, hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), affect many pregnant individuals worldwide. This Review discusses the global disease burden and risk factors for HDP and GDM and discusses public health interventions that might help reduce the associated mortality and morbidity. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are common cardiometabolic complications of pregnancy. HDP and GDM show an unevenly distributed disease burden (in terms of prevalence, disability-adjusted life years and/or maternal deaths) in low-income and middle-income countries and/or regions with low sociodemographic and human development indexes. In addition to common clinical, demographic and behavioural risk factors, the development and clinical consequences of HDP and GDM are substantially influenced by the socioeconomic determinants of health. Besides prevention and treatment at the individual level, strategies should also be made at different levels and in conjunction with multisector partnerships to improve societal and community conditions to prevent and/or manage HDP and GDM.

The Introduction (p. 2) says this analysis was restricted to an ethnically homogeneous population, and Study population (p. 3) specifies that only women of Dutch ethnicity were selected. The paper therefore does not report the Black-versus-white risk comparison attributed to it; it examines educational level and gestational hypertension among Dutch women. (LLM, conf=0.88)

The Participants section (p. 3) identifies this as a California cohort, not the Generation R study.

The Introduction (p. 3) says higher socioeconomic status does not necessarily confer the same health gains for Black individuals as for White individuals. The Discussion (p. 7) explicitly proposes structural and cultural forms of racism as a possible explanation for why higher status may be less health-protective. The claim preserves that uncertainty by saying “might.” (LLM, conf=0.94)

The Socioeconomic level/education section reports associations of GDM with maternal education and occupational categories, and the Conclusions describe the socioeconomic findings as controversial. But the review reports no association with average household income in the study it discusses, so it does not support household income as an associated factor.

The Outcome data section reports higher hazards of cardiovascular events, cardiovascular mortality, and chronic hypertension after preeclampsia than in women without a preeclamptic pregnancy.

The Abstract states that women with HDP have higher cardiovascular morbidity and mortality than women with normotensive pregnancies.

The Results report higher later hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and fatal cardiovascular-event risks after pre-eclampsia; the Discussion also reports higher future hypertension and cardiovascular disease risk after pregnancy-induced hypertension. The claim extends these findings to all hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), whereas the Methods specify pre-eclampsia and a separate analysis of pregnancy-induced hypertension, with comparison groups defined by absence of pre-eclampsia rather than uncomplicated pregnancy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
