We tested hypotheses that disproportionately large placental size and vascular lesions were associated with high systolic blood pressure (SBP); and these associations might be more evident with age. The sample included 13 273 of 40 666 full-term singletons in the Collaborative Perinatal Project. Placentas were examined by pathologists blinded of pregnancy courses and outcomes. The 4-month and 7-year SBPs were measured with palpation and auscultation methods, respectively. We found that placental weight (adjusted mean difference corresponding to an increase by 1 SD 0.50 [95% CI, 0.33 to 0.68]) and placenta-fetus weight ratio (0.37 [95% CI, 0.19 to 0.54]) was positively associated with 7-year SBP but not associated with 4-month SBP. Placental largest and smallest diameters and area were negatively associated with 4-month SBP but positively with 7-year SBP. Placental thickness was negatively associated with 4-month SBP only. Placental volume was negatively associated with 4-month SBP (-0.60 [95% CI, -0.85 to -0.35]) but positively associated with 7-year SBP (0.48 [95% CI, 0.30 to 0.67]). Thrombi in cord vessels (adjusted mean difference versus absence 2.73 [95% CI, -0.03 to 5.50]) and decidual vessels (2.58 [95% CI, 0.24 to 4.91]), villous microinfarcts (1.63 [95% CI, 0.71 to 2.55]), necrosis at the decidual margin (1.57 [95% CI, 0.54 to 2.59]), and basalis (3.44 [95% CI, 1.55 to 5.32]) were associated with higher 4-month SBP only. We conclude that placental inefficiency, reflected by disproportionately large weight and size, predicts long-term blood pressure, whereas vascular resistance and lesions may only influence short-term blood pressure.
