Objective. Maternal physiologic responses to pregnancy promoting fetal oxygen and nutrient delivery are important
determinants of reproductive success. Incomplete physiologic compensation for reduced oxygen availability ...
Do cytokines contribute to the andean-associated protection from reduced fetal growth at high altitude?
