项目摘要

ABSTRACT A growing number of studies has implicated maternal stress as an explanation for the higher burden of adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) seen among non-Hispanic Black women compared with their non-Hispanic White counterparts. Most studies that have explored the relationship between stress and APOs have focused solely on prenatal exposure to stressors, but Black women are generally exposed to more stressors over the life course than White women. Moreover, Black women may have more limited resources to cope with social stressors, as well as be more likely to experience enduring stressors like racial and/or gender discrimination, which may lead to dysregulated physiological and psychological responses to everyday stressors (i.e., stress reactivity). Several studies have shown dysregulated cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, and affective reactivity to stressors is associated with increased CVD risk and other adverse health outcomes in non-pregnant populations, but the impact of dysregulated stress reactivity on pregnancy outcomes remains poorly understood. Thus, the overall goal of this study is to examine the impact of physiological and psychological stress reactivity on adverse placental and pregnancy outcomes. We will use ecological momentary assessments and intensive measurements of heart rate variability, blood pressure, salivary cortisol, and positive and negative affect to generate personalized measures of how pregnant women respond to stressful experiences in their daily lives. We will then examine associations of these measures with adverse placental lesions and pregnancy outcomes. Finally, we will quantify the extent to which stress reactivity and exposure to stressors during pregnancy account for racial disparities in these adverse outcomes.

抽象的越来越多的研究表明，母亲的压力是造成不良生活负担较高的原因之一。非西班牙裔黑人女性与非西班牙裔白人女性的妊娠结局 (APO) 同行。大多数探索压力和 APO 之间关系的研究都只关注产前接触压力源，但黑人女性在一生中通常会接触更多压力源当然比白人女性。此外，黑人女性应对社会问题的资源可能更加有限。压力源，并且更有可能经历持久的压力源，例如种族和/或性别歧视，这可能会导致对日常压力源（即压力）的生理和心理反应失调反应性）。多项研究表明，心血管、神经内分泌和情感反应失调压力源与非怀孕者的 CVD 风险增加和其他不良健康结果相关人群，但应激反应失调对妊娠结局的影响仍然很差明白了。因此，本研究的总体目标是检验生理和心理的影响。应激反应对不良胎盘和妊娠结局的影响。我们将用生态瞬间评估和集中测量心率变异性、血压、唾液皮质醇和积极和消极的影响，以产生孕妇如何应对压力的个性化措施他们日常生活中的经历。然后我们将检查这些措施与不良胎盘的关联病变和妊娠结局。最后，我们将量化压力反应性和暴露于的程度怀孕期间的压力因素导致了这些不良后果的种族差异。
