Summary

Background:

Pre-eclampsia, defined by the association of an arterial hypertension and significant proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation, complicates 1 to 2% of pregnancies in France. Its pathophysiology involves angiogenesis impairment, upregulated maternal systemic inflammatory response, activation of oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction.

In a recent Danish nation-wide cohort study, pre-eclampsia was associated with a 69% increased risk of later developing scleroderma.

Type of study: prospective observational case-control study. Primary objective of the study: to determine if a history of pre-eclampsia before systemic sclerosis diagnosis is an independent risk factor for vascular phenotype in sclerodermic women.

Secondary objective: to describe all risk factors for vascular phenotype in sclerodermic women with a previous pregnancy longer than 6 months before scleroderma diagnosis.
