The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality have declined dramatically during the last century. Historical data are therefore important sources to study the evolutionary selection pressures related to childbirth and how they have fluctuated over time.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Revista de Medicina, 2011 A reparação cutânea fetal tem atraído atenção de muitos pesquisadores. A cura da ferida no feto é única, pois feridas da pele fetal reparam-se rapidamente sem formação de cicatrizes. Conduzimos, neste estudo, uma revisão da literatura referente ao processo de reparo cutâneo da pele fetal comparando-o ao reparo após o nascimento.

Placental Blood‐Flow Velocity Quantification From Diffusion MRI
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Altered placental capillary blood flow is closely linked to obstetric complications, yet quantifying capillary‐scale blood velocity remains challenging with existing imaging methods. This is partially because capillary networks form disordered microvascular beds at the voxel scale, rather than coherent, directional vessels.

Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia
Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Characterize neuroimaging findings in foetuses with anaemia and identify associated risk factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with foetal anaemia (defined as haemoglobin > 2 standard deviations below the gestational age mean) confirmed by foetal blood sampling (FBS) and treated with intrauterine transfusion (IUT)
