Andean women have greater uterine artery (UTA) enlargement during pregnancy than european residents of 3600 m.
([s.n.], 2003)
Abstract.
Babies weigh less at high altitude but multi-generational high-altitude residents are protected from this birth weight decline (Moore HAMB 2001). Objective: We asked if higher arterial oxygenation and/or blood ...
Intrauterine growth restriction, preeclampsia, and intrauterine mortality at high altitude in Bolivia
(PEDIATRIC RESEARCH, 2003-02-18)
Abstract.
Infant mortality and stillbirth rates in Bolivia are high and birth weights are low compared with other South American countries. Most Bolivians live at altitudes of 2500 m or higher. We sought to determine the ...
Uterine artery blood flow during pregnancy in high-altitude aymara women
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2003-02-19)
Background.
Birth weight falls with increasing altitude as the result of
intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) likely due, in turn, to lower uterine artery (UtA) blood flow. The altitude-associated birth weight decline
is ...
Andean compared with european women are protected from altitude-associated intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR)
(s.n., 2003)
Abstract.
Babies born at high altitude to long-term high-altitude residents weigh more than those of recent migrants from low altitude. Objective: We asked whether a gradient exists such that persons of Andean ancestry ...
Human physiological adaptation to pregnancy : inter- and intrspecific perspectives
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2003)
Abstract.
Reproductive success requires successful maternal physiological adaptation to pregnancy. An interspecific perspective reveals that the human species has modified features of our haplorhine heritage affecting ...
