Placenta and Fetal Growth Restriction

SALAFIA, CAROLYN M., CHARLES, ADRIAN K., MAAS, ELIZABETH M.·2006·Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology

Abstract

The placenta, as the vector for all maternal-fetal oxygen and nutrient exchange, is a principal influence on birthweight. Placental weight summarizes laterally expanding growth of the chorionic disc, and villous arborization yielding the nutrient exchange surface. These different growth dimensions alter fetoplacental weight ratio and ponderal index, and thus may modify placental functional efficiency. The placenta may show a range of histopathologies, some of which are also associated with fetal growth restriction. Different fetal intrinsic abilities to compensate for gross and histo-pathology may clarify the imperfect relationships between fetal growth and both intrauterine pathology, and the long-term health risks associated with poor fetal growth.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Hypertensive pregnancy disorders, compromised fetal growth, and fetal death often stem from placental dysfunction-either due to insufficient initial placentation or diminishing placental function with increasing gestational age.

    “In particular, hypertensive pregnancy disorders, compromised fetal growth, and fetal death often stem from placental dysfunction—either due to insufficient initial placentation or diminishing placental function with increasing gestational age14,15.”
  • Placental volume as early as 11 to 13 weeks' gestation correlates with birth weight at term.

    “The placental volume as early as 11 to 13 weeks’ gestation has long been known to correlate with birth weight at term [39].”

    From Deep Learning Strategies for Ultrasound in Pregnancy (2020) · cites this paper as [39]

  • Placental insufficiency is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes like fetal growth restriction (FGR), caused by insufficient transport of nutrients and oxygen through the placenta.

    “Placental insufficiency is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes like fetal growth restriction (FGR), caused by insufficient transport of nutrients and oxygen through the placenta [38].”

    From Deep Learning Strategies for Ultrasound in Pregnancy (2020) · cites this paper as [38]

  • Birth weight is dependent on gestational age at delivery, maternal characteristics, and placental volume, vasculature and function.

    “Birth weight is dependent upon numerous factors including gestational age at the time of delivery [1]; maternal characteristics [1–3]; and placental volume, vasculature and function [4].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
