Model 1 adjusted for age and sex, Model 2 adjusted for age, sex, birth weight, body mass index (BMI), smoking, and socioeconomic status (SES). Model 3 adjusted for age, sex, birth weight, BMI, smoking, SES, and hypertension. FMD indicates flow‐mediated dilatation; HDP, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy; IMT, intermedia thickness; O‐HDP, offspring of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
