Compensatory feto-placental upregulation of the nitric oxide system during fetal growth restriction. [PDF]
BackgroundFetal Growth Restriction is often associated with a feto-placental vascular dysfunction conceivably involving endothelial cells. Our study aimed to verify this pathogenic role for feto-placental endothelial cells and, coincidentally ...

Fetal growth restriction [PDF]
Fetal growth restriction during pregnancy is a complex problem, which can lead to unexpected perinatal mortality. Traditionally, we define the growth of a fetus as abnormal when the fetus has an estimated weight below the 10th percentile. In that case, a baby belongs to the 10% smallest children for that gestational age.

Impact of hypertensive disorders on disease progression in pregnancies affected by early‐onset fetal growth restriction [PDF]
Introduction Fetal growth restriction is a leading cause of perinatal morbidity, often linked to placental insufficiency. Hypertensive disorders frequently coexist with fetal growth restriction and may alter its clinical course.

Insufficient fetal growth: fetal growth restriction or small for gestational age fetus? The difference between these conditions, what is known about diagnosis, prevention and treatment: A review [PDF]
The difference between the fetal growth restriction and the small-for-gestational-age fetus was analyzed in this article. The article describes the most complete definition of the fetal growth restriction according to ultrasound data.

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a failure of fetus to reach its expected biological growth, based on its genetically predetermined potential. Whenever effective fetal weight is less than, 10th percentile or 2 standard deviation of population-specific growth curve, it is considered small for gestational age (SGA).
