Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of a clinical screening strategy and genomic analysis of the factors involved in Placental Dysfunction (Preeclampsia and IUGR) in women of advanced maternal age undergoing assisted reproduction techniques (ART), specifically, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and oocyte donation.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Number of Participants with preeclampsia (PE) during pregnancy
Defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90mmHg with an interval of at least 4 h after 20 weeks' gestation plus any of the following: (i) proteinuria (\>300 mg/24 h) or a urine protein/creatinine ratio \> 0.3 mg/mmol); (ii) end-organ dysfunction: systolic blood pressure \> 160 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure \>110 mmHg, platelet count \<100x109/L, blood alanine and aspartate transaminases \>70 IU/L, serum creatinine \>1. 1 mg/dL, lactate dehydrogenase \>700 IU/L, right upper quadrant or epigastric pain, dyspnea and/or cerebral/visual disturbances. Or (iii) utero-placental dysfunction (estimated fetal weight \<3rd centile or \<10th centile with abnormal uterine or umbilical Doppler \[pulsatility index \>95th centile\]) as defined by the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy (ISSHP) with minor adaptations for study purposes.
≥20 weeks to <37 weeks of gestation
Number of fetuses diagnosed with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) during pregnancy
IUGR will be defined by the following criteria: Estimated fetal weight (EFW) between percentile (p) 3 and p 10 with Doppler alteration (uterine arteries \> p 95 or cerebroplacental index \< p 5, or middle cerebral artery \< p 5, or umbilical artery \> p 95). PFE \< p 3 independently of feto-maternal Doppler.
≥20 weeks to <37 weeks of gestation
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Number of fetuses and newborns with severe perinatal morbidity
From birth up to 7 days of life
Cesarean section rate
During birth
Number of Participants with pregnancy-related maternal morbidity
From conception up to 4 days after birth
Maternal experience and psychological impact
From conception up to 4 days after birth
Maternal anxiety and psychological impact
From conception up to 4 days after birth
Interventions
Doppler ultrasound at 13, 16, 20 and 26 weeks for assessment of uterine arteries according to ISUOG criteria.
Blood sampling at 13, 16, 20, 26 weeks of gestation to determine the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio
Eligibility Criteria
Sample 1. Virgen del Rocío Hospital Area: according to the data obtained from the pregnant women who start the pregnancy process in the Andalusian Congenital Anomalies Screening Program (PACAC) in 2021, we expect a total population of 165 pregnant women per year with age at the start of pregnancy equal to or greater than 40 years, and whose pregnancy was obtained through IVF or ovodonation. 2. Clínicas Ginemed: according to the data obtained from the report of Ginemed Clinics for the year 2021, we expect a total population of 150 pregnant women per year with an age at the onset of pregnancy equal to or greater than 40 years old, and whose gestation was obtained through IVF or ovodonation.
