Main Findings
Overall, women with pre-eclampsia/eclampsia in pregnancy significantly increased the future occurrence rate of stroke, both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, even after 10 to 15 years. The risks of hemorrhagic stroke at different follow up periods were all higher than that of ischemic stroke, with different risk time trends. The peak of ischemic stroke risk was 1-3 years after childbirth; while for the peak of hemorrhagic stroke risk was 3-5 years after childbirth.
