Purpose To characterize spatial patterns of in the placenta of the rhesus macaque (Macaca
mulatta), to correlate these patterns with placental perfusion determined using dynamic …

Aims Approximately 6–9% pregnancies are affected by fetal growth restriction (FGR).
Placental alterations related to utero‐placental insufficiency in FGR may induce placental …

The placenta performs a wide range of physiological functions; insufficiencies in these
functions may result in a variety of severe prenatal and postnatal syndromes with long-term …

Introduction Brief hypercapnic challenge causes acute placental hypoperfusion with fetal
brain sparing on BOLD-MRI. We hypothesize that this non-invasive imaging strategy can …

Background Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a serious pregnancy complication associated
with increased risk of adverse neurodevelopment and neuromorbidity. Current imaging …

Introduction We evaluated changes in placental and fetal hemodynamics in rodents during
acute hypercapnia using BOLD-MRI and Doppler ultrasound. Methods Animals were …

Placental insufficiency is associated with reduced oxygen and nutrient supply to the fetus,
which may result in fetal growth restriction (FGR). In an attempt to cope with the hostile …

Placental function is of fundamental importance for normal fetal growth and development.
The movement of blood within the placenta ensures adequate transfer of nutrients and …

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between placental
oxidative stress and maternal endothelial function in pregnant women with normotensive …

BACKGROUND: Placental morphology and pregnancy outcome differ between normal
pregnancies and those with foetal growth restriction (FGR). Most reports do not differentiate …
