Advances in the Application of Ultrasound for Evaluating Placental Function in Fetal Growth Restriction (FGR) Pregnancy [PDF]
Placenta is a vital organ of a unique circulatory system that allows the exchange of nutrients between maternal and fetal circulations, supporting fetal growth during pregnancy.

Abstract Objective Maternal obesity and excess gestational weight gain (GWG) are linked to adverse perinatal outcomes, potentially via disruption of the maternal–fetal stress axis. Placental HSD11B2 protects the fetus from excess glucocorticoids and may influence fetal programming during maternal metabolic stress.

Exploring maternal-fetal interface with in vitro placental and trophoblastic models
The placenta, being a temporary organ, plays a crucial role in facilitating the exchange of nutrients and gases between the mother and the fetus during pregnancy. Any abnormalities in the development of this vital organ not only lead to various pregnancy-

Functionality and quality of life in different gestational trimesters: A cross‐sectional study
Abstract Objective To compare functionality and quality of life in pregnant women in different trimesters. Methods An observational cross‐sectional study was conducted with pregnant women ≥18 years of age undergoing prenatal care. Data were collected using a sociodemographic questionnaire, the WHO Quality of Life questionnaire (WHOQOL‐Bref), WHO ...

Aquaporins in development – a review
Water homeostasis during fetal development is of crucial physiologic importance. It depends upon maternal fetal fluid exchange at the placenta and fetal membranes, and some exchange between fetus and amniotic fluid can occur across the skin before full ...

Distal 1q43q44 deletions lead to a consistent neurodevelopmental phenotype characterized by microcephaly, corpus callosum abnormalities, and developmental delay. Despite differences in genomic architecture, overlapping deletions affecting dosage‐sensitive genes such as AKT3, HNRNPU, and ZBTB18 define the core phenotype.

The placenta plays a critical role in nutrient-waste exchange between the maternal and fetal circulation, and thus impacts fetal growth and development. We have previously shown that nano-titanium dioxide (nano-TiO2) inhalation exposure during gestation ...
