Phylogenetics series Molecules consolidate the placental mammal tree

Deciphering relationships among the orders of placental mammals remains an important problem in evolutionary biology and has implications for understanding patterns of morphological character evolution, reconstructing the ancestral placental genome, and evaluating the role of plate tectonics and dispersal in the biogeographic history of this group. Until recently, both molecular and morphologic...

Comparison of Placental Morphology and Histopathology of Intrauterine Growth Restriction and Normal Infants

Background & Objective: Chronic non healing ulcers or scar undergoing malignant transformation is a rare phenomenon with an estimated incidence of 2%. Though, numerous predisposing factors have been identified, still it is rarely diagnosed and commonly mistaken for a benign condition. The objective of this study was to verify the efficacy of the Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology/ Scrape cytology ...

Mammalian Evolution May not Be Strictly Bifurcating

The massive amount of genomic sequence data that is now available for analyzing evolutionary relationships among 31 placental mammals reduces the stochastic error in phylogenetic analyses to virtually zero. One would expect that this would make it possible to finally resolve controversial branches in the placental mammalian tree. We analyzed a 2,863,797 nucleotide-long alignment (3,364 genes) f...

Association of placental location and neonatal weight in subjects attending to hospitals of Azad University of Tehran in 2018-2019

Background: Fetal weight is a common index of health in neonates and determination of related factors would help to improve the conditions and outcomes. The aim of this study was to speculate the relationship between placental location and neonatal weight. Materials and methods: We conducted an observational-prospective study on 87 pregnant women. Placental position was categorised by ultrasono...

Diversification of the eutherian placenta is associated with changes in the pace of life.

Few mammalian organs vary as dramatically among species as the placenta. This variation is remarkable considering that the placenta's primary function--transfer of nutrients and waste between mother and offspring--does not differ among species. Evolutionary changes in placental morphology remain poorly understood, with suggestions that parent-offspring conflict or evolutionary changes in life h...
