Resumen:
This study aimed to evaluate vascular function changes and autonomic balance during the first trimesterof pregnancy and its relationship with the new-born weight. This prospective study performed inpregnant (PG) women and after delivery (not pregnant: NPG) evaluated the endothelial function (EF)and arterial stiffness (AS) by a non-invasive method. We evaluated the heart rate variability (HRV), parasympatheticnervous system (PNS), sympathetic nervous system (SNS) indexes by electrocardiogram(5 min) and the urinary nitrite excretion (NOx). PG increased EF and NOx and decreased AS and HRV.PG decreased the PNS index and augmented the SNS index. The new-born weight positively correlatedwith the PNS index (Pearson?s r: 0.4291; p
