• Cardiac and vascular disease prior to hatching in chick embryos incubated at high altitude 

      Salinas, CE; Blanco, CE; Villena, M; Camm, EJ; Tuckett, JD; Weerakkody, RA; Kane, AD; Shelley, AM; Wooding, FBP; Quy, M; Giussani, DA (Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2010)
      Abstract. The partial contributions of reductions in fetal nutrition and oxygenation to slow fetal growth and a developmental origin of cardiovascular disease remain unclear. By combining high altitude with the chick ...
    • Preeclampsia and risk of maternal pulmonary hypertension at high altitude in Bolivia 

      Salinas, CE; Patey, OV; Murillo, C; Gonzales, M; Espinoza, V; Mendoza, S; Ruiz, R; Vargas, R; Perez, Y; Montaño, J; Toledo-Jaldin, L; Badner, A; Jimenez, J; Peñaranda, J; Romero, C; Aguilar, M; Riveros, L; Arana, I; Giussani, DA (Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2023)
      Abstract. Women with a history of preeclampsia (PE) have a greater risk of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In turn, pregnancy at high altitude is a risk factor for PE. However, whether women who develop PE during ...
    • The highs and lows of programmed cardiovascular disease by developmental hypoxia : studies in the chicken embryo 

      Itani, N; Salinas, CE; Villena, M; Skeffington, KL; Beck, C; Villamor, E; Blanco, CE; Giussani, DA (J Physiol, 2018)
      Abstract It is now established that adverse conditions during pregnancy can trigger a fetal origin of cardiovascular dysfunction and/or increase the risk of heart disease in later life. Suboptimal environmental conditions ...
