This study investigates whether fetal gender influences the risk of developing preeclampsia during pregnancy.
Retrospective cohort study of singleton pregnancies from a medical database.
Data included maternal demographics, obstetric history, and uterine artery Doppler findings.
Multivariable logistic regression analyzed associations between fetal gender and preeclampsia, adjusting for confounders.
Interaction analyses examined potential effects of maternal age, BMI, smoking, and Doppler indices.
Fetal gender was not associated with preeclampsia occurrence.
Key predictors included higher maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, use of assisted reproductive technologies, and abnormal uterine artery Doppler findings.
No significant interaction effects were found between fetal gender and any maternal factors.
