Effects of maternal anxiety on fetal and maternal circulation
Revista da Associação Médica Brasileira, 2023 The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between maternal anxiety in the third trimester and changes in fetal and maternal circulation assessed by Doppler velocimetry.This is a prospective, cross-sectional study. The inclusion criteria were good health, a singleton pregnancy, maternal age between 18 and 40 years, and gestational age ...

Evolution of maternal effect senescence [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015 Significance Evolutionary theory underpins our understanding of the aging process. The many aspects of reproduction that decline with maternal age in animals include number of offspring born, offspring size, and neonatal survival. Current theories of aging ignore potential differences in the evolutionary pressures on these traits ...

The Effects of Childbirth Education on Maternity Outcomes and Maternal Satisfaction [PDF]
The Journal of Perinatal Education, 2020 Past evaluation of the effectiveness of childbirth education classes related to obstetric outcomes and satisfaction with the birth experience have not shown consistent results. This study explored the relationship between attendance of set curriculum childbirth education class and the labor and birth process, as well as maternal satisfaction with the ...

The effect of pregnancy on maternal cognition [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractTo determine whether there are differences in measures of cognitive function between second and third trimester pregnant women compared to non-pregnant controls. This prospective study comprised 40 pregnant and 40 non-pregnant women, 20–40 years old, native-Hebrew speakers who were recruited from the outpatient clinics during a period of nearly

Variation in egg size and offspring phenotype among and within seven Arctic charr morphs
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Maternal effects have the potential to alter early developmental processes of offspring and contribute to adaptive diversification. Egg size is a major contributor to offspring phenotype, which can influence developmental trajectories and potential ...

The Evolution of Multivariate Maternal Effects
PLoS Computational Biology, 2014 There is a growing interest in predicting the social and ecological contexts that favor the evolution of maternal effects. Most predictions focus, however, on maternal effects that affect only a single character, whereas the evolution of maternal effects is poorly understood in the presence of suites of interacting traits. To overcome this, we simulate

Journal of Lipid Research, 2005 Maternal effects on offspring phenotypes occur because mothers in many species provide an environment for their developing young. Although these factors are correctly “environmental” with respect to the offspring genome, their variance may have both a ...
