Recurrent Constellations of Embryonic Malformations (RCEM): Teratogenicity Linked to Transient Hypoxia and Hormone Pregnancy Tests Agrees With RCEM and Suggest a Reactive Oxygen Species Pathogenesis. [PDF]
Birth Defects ResABSTRACT Background No consistent genetic etiology has been found for a group of six different conditions in humans with multiple malformations called “recurrent constellations of embryonic malformations” (RCEM).
