    Abstract: Preexisting hypertension increases risk for preeclampsia. We examined whether a generic blood pressure polygenic risk score (BP-PRS), compared with a preeclampsia-specific polygenic risk score (PE-PRS), could better predict hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Methods: Our study sample included 141 298 genotyped FinnGen study participants with at least one childbirth and followed from 1969 to 2021. We calculated PRSs for SBP and preeclampsia using summary statistics for greater than 1.1 million single nucleotide polymorphisms. Results: We observed 8488 cases of gestational hypertension (GHT) and 6643 cases of preeclampsia. BP-PRS was associated with GHT [multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio for 1SD increase in PRS (hazard ratio 1.38; 95% CI 1.35–1.41)] and preeclampsia (1.26, 1.23–1.29), respectively. The PE-PRS was also associated with GHT (1.16; 1.14–1.19) and preeclampsia (1.21, 1.18–1.24), but with statistically more modest magnitudes of effect ( P  = 0.01). The model c-statistic for preeclampsia improved when PE-PRS was added to clinical risk factors ( P  = 4.6 × 10 –15 ). Additional increment in the c-statistic was observed when BP-PRS was added to a model already including both clinical risk factors and PE-PRS ( P  = 1.1 × 10 –14 ). Conclusion: BP-PRS is strongly associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Our current observations suggest that the BP-PRS could capture the genetic architecture of preeclampsia better than the current PE-PRSs. These findings also emphasize the common pathways in the development of all BP disorders. The clinical utility of a BP-PRS for preeclampsia prediction warrants further investigation.

    Abstract: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and non-CVD traits. In addition, women’s prognosis after coronary events and revascularizations is worse than in men. As the course of CVD in women differs from that of men, we performed a phenome-wide analysis on the sex differences in CABG -related morbidity and mortality. Materials and methods We performed an untargeted analysis on the sex differences in predictors and outcomes of CABG. We studied a sample of 176,680 FinnGen participants, including 5,950 individuals who underwent CABG (4,988 men and 962 women) and were followed between 1998 and 2019. Over 1,100 different traits were analyzed for both sexes and the results were adjusted with age, smoking status and BMI. Cox proportional hazards models with sex-trait interactions were used to estimate the associations between (1) traits and incident CABG; and (2) CABG and incident traits. Results In women, CABG was more strongly related to greater increases in risk of diseases such as hypertension, Alzheimer’s, aortic aneurysms, gout, and chronic kidney disease compared to risk increases observed in men (all interaction p -values & lt; 0.03). After CABG, men had 2.5-fold ( p = 3.1E−15) and women 6.3-fold ( p = 9.4E−08) greater risk of cardiac death compared to same-sex individuals who did not undergo CABG (p for interaction 8.2E−4). Moreover, the risk of death in women remained higher even 12 years after CABG, whereas the long-term risk of death in men was not increased, compared to same-sex individuals who did not undergo CABG. Conclusion The adverse outcomes after CABG, both quantity and quality, also appear to differ between men and women. In women, CABG is related to greater long-term increases in risk of cardiac death and several other disease states than in men. Consideration should therefore be given to whether women receive adequate long-term post-operative therapy and follow-up as CABG is not associated with equally improved cardiovascular disease prognosis in women than in men.

    Abstract: Introduction: Blood pressure (BP) is a known risk factor for pre-eclampsia. We examined whether a BP-polygenic risk score (PRS) as compared with a pre-eclampsia-PRS, could also predict gestational hypertension (GHT), pre-eclampsia, and eclampsia. Methods: Our study sample included 116434 genotyped, previously-pregnant participants of the FinnGen cohort who were followed up between 1969-2019. PRSs for systolic BP and pre-eclampsia were derived using UK Biobank summary statistics for 〉 1.1 million single nucleotide polymorphisms. Results: We observed 6561 cases of GHT, 5263 cases of pre-eclampsia, and 385 cases of eclampsia. As shown in the Figure, we observed that the BP-PRS was associated with GHT (multivariable-adjusted HR for 1-SD increase in PRS, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.36-1.43; p=9x10 -160 ), pre-eclampsia (HR, 1.26 (95% CI 1.23-1.30, p=1.6x10 -63 ) and with eclampsia (HR, 1.29 (95% CI, 1.16-1.42, p=8.1x10 -7 ), respectively. The pre-eclampsia-PRS was also associated with GHT (HR, 1.09; 95% CI 1.07-1.12, p=1.0x10 -12 ) pre-eclampsia (HR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.06-1.12, p=2.2x10 -10 ) and eclampsia (HR, 1.12, 95% CI, 1.02-1.24, p=0.023), although these associations were more modest. The model c-statistic for incident pre-eclampsia increased from 0.544 to 0.591 (95% CI for difference, 0.022-0.034, p 〈 1x10 -300 ) when BP-PRS was included in a model with pre-eclampsia-PRS. Conclusions: Our study confirms that the increased risks for developing GHT, pre-eclampsia and eclampsia are strongly associated with genetic factors related to BP. A BP-PRS seems to be an even stronger predictor of hypertensive pregnancy complications than a pre-eclampsia-PRS. Our results suggest common pathways for the development of these diseases that need to be further investigated.
