Maternal calcium metabolic stress and fetal growth.
BACKGROUND Suboptimal maternal calcium intake and vitamin D status may or may not adversely influence fetal growth. OBJECTIVE It was hypothesized that maternal calcium metabolic stress in early pregnancy, rather than suboptimal calcium intake or insufficient vitamin D, influences the risk of small-for-gestational-age (SGA) births and other aspects of fetal growth. Stress to calcium metabolism...
متن کاملNutritional anaemia dysregulates endocrine control of fetal growth.
Severe anaemia is associated with increased low birth weight and Barker's hypothesis of 'fetal origins' proposes that a nutritional insult during critical periods of development results in adaptations that predispose individuals to adult onset diseases. We hypothesize that endocrine alterations may occur in the maternal-fetal milieu as a consequence of nutritional anaemia during pregnancy. We e...
متن کاملPlacental Growth, Fetal Growth and Maternal RhE Genotype
The Rh locus is composed of two genes RhD, which encodes the major D antigen and is present only in Rh-positive genomes, and RhCE, which encodes both the Cc and Ee polypeptides, most likely by alternative splicing events. Several membrane components, including Rh proteins and other glycoproteins recently characterized, are probably different subunits of an oligomeric complex with transport func...
متن کاملAssociation of maternal caffeine consumption with decrements in fetal growth.
Whether caffeine consumption during pregnancy represents a fetal hazard remains uncertain. The authors report on a large prospective study designed to examine this question. In 1996-2000, 2,291 mothers with singleton livebirths in Connecticut and Massachusetts were evaluated after their first prenatal visit and were questioned about caffeine consumption and important confounding factors. Urine ...
