Abstract
This study had sufficient power to detect doubling of the PIH rate. It was demonstrated that the risk of PIH was tripled for ED versus controls. Even in young women, ED is a risk factor for PIH. An immunological explanation seems most likely, that is, the fetus is fully allogeneic to its mother. This risk must be acknowledged to inform couples and provide careful pregnancy monitoring.
