Fetal Growth and Stillbirth

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2021
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a common clinical manifestation of placental insufficiency. As such, FGR is a risk factor for stillbirth. This association has been demonstrated in numerous studies but is prone to overestimation because of the possibility of prolonged in utero retention before the recognition of the fetal death.

Fetal growth

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2000
Recent epidemiological and experimental studies show that abnormal fetal growth can lead to serious complications, including stillbirth, perinatal morbidity and disorders extending well beyond the neonatal period. It is now clear that the intrauterine milieu is as important as genetic endowment in shaping the future health of the conceptus.

Fetal growth

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1998
Fetal growth requires the correct balance of nutrients, oxygen, and growth factors operating under the direction of a genetic plan modified by maternal factors. The classic hormones of postnatal growth play differing roles with alternative controls compared to those after birth. The study of conditions of abnormal fetal growth illuminates the mechanism

Androgens and Fetal Growth

Hormone Research in Paediatrics, 1998
Boys are heavier than girls at term birth. Children with a 46,XY karyotype and androgen insensitivity syndrome (clinically complete form and/or proven mutations in the androgen receptor gene) were found to have a birth weight comparable to that of girls. These findings support the hypothesis that the difference in birth weight between boys and girls is

Fetal growth factors and fetal nutrition

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2013
Optimal fetal growth is important for a healthy pregnancy outcome and also for lifelong health. Fetal growth is largely regulated by fetal nutrition, and mediated via the maternal and fetal glucose/insulin/insulin-like growth factor axes. Fetal nutrition may reflect maternal nutrition, but abnormalities of placental function can also affect fetal ...

Assessment of Fetal Growth

Clinics in Perinatology, 1986
Normal fetal growth is a logarithmic process, marked by rapid mitosis at its early stages and by cellular hypertrophy and the accumulation of fat, glycogen, and connective tissue later in gestation. Growth-retarding influences can alter cell number, with a symmetric pattern of IUGR resulting if they occur early.
