The objective of the study was to investigate the impact of gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia on preterm birth. The findings suggest that pre-eclampsia was associated with a higher risk of preterm birth. The early-onset gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia were associated with more severe risks than late-onset conditions.
