Trends in global and regional incidence and prevalence of hypertensive disordersin pregnancy (1990-2021): an age-period-cohort analysis.

ABSTRACT: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are significant global health issues. This study utilized data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 to analyze trends in incidence, prevalence, and Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALY) associated with HDP across 204 countries from 1990 to 2021. The analysis employed estimated annual percentage changes and an age-period-cohort model, stratifying data by age, year, geographical region, and sociodemographic index (SDI). Statistical analyses and visualizations were conducted using R. Between 1990 and 2021, global HDP incidence rose from 31.33 million to 36.10 million cases (15.24%), while prevalence surged from 6.15 million to 36.10 million cases (487%). Despite the increase in absolute cases, the age-standardized rates for incidence and preva
