Popis: OBJECTIVE: DATA: Pre-conception or early administration of low-dose aspirin might improve endometrial growth, placental vascularization and organogenesis. Most studies have evaluated the potential benefit of pre-conception or early administration of low-dose aspirin in women with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss, women who have undergone in vitro fertilization or women with thrombophilia or antiphospholipid syndrome. These women are at an increased risk of placenta-associated complications of pregnancy, including preeclampsia, preterm delivery and fetal growth restriction. STUDY: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of low-dose aspirin initiated at 85% of the study population. Relative risks (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for each study and pooled for global analysis as the effect measure. We assessed statistical heterogeneity in each meta-analysis using the Chi2 statistics, I2 and Tau2. Heterogeneity was considered substantial if an I2 was greater than 50% and either the Tau2 was greater than zero, or there was a low P-value (
