In this issue of the Journal, Iwama et al.1 report the findings of a prospective study assessing the association between infant weight at birth and maternal blood pressure (BP), measured both in the clinic (CBP) and at home (HBP), between 10 and 20 weeks gestation in a large cohort of Japanese women. The authors found that increased diastolic and mean HBP values before 20 weeks gestation were related to a higher risk of lower infant birth weight than diastolic and mean CBP after adjusting for several confounders

Abstract
In this issue of the Journal, Iwama et al.1 report the findings of a prospective study assessing the association between infant weight at birth and maternal blood pressure (BP), measured both in the clinic (CBP) and at home (HBP), between 10 and 20 weeks gestation in a large cohort of Japanese women. The authors found that increased diastolic and mean HBP values before 20 weeks gestation were related to a higher risk of lower infant birth weight than diastolic and mean CBP after adjusting for several confounders
