Hypertensive disorders (HD) of pregnancy are a leading cause of maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity worldwide. Although several risk factors for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy have been firmly established, the risk attributable to specific race-ethnicities is less clear. The risk of preeclampsia-eclampsia may differ by maternal ethnicity 30 as also the course, severity </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">and</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> prognosis.
