Impact of gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia on preterm birth in China: a large prospective cohort study
Objective: To investigate the impact of gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia on preterm birth. Design: The data were collected from the China-US Collaborative Project for Neural Tube Defect Prevention; this was a large population-based cohort study.
