MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES OF THE SPIRAL ARTERIES IN THE PLACENTAE BED IN RELATION TO PRE‐ECLAMPSIA AND FETAL GROWTH RETARDATION

Gerretsen, G., Huisjes, H. J., Elema, J. D.·1981·BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Abstract

Summary: The spiral arteries at the level of the decidual‐myometrial junction in the placental bed were examined histologically in 93 biopsies. Of these, 23 originated from normal uncomplicated pregnancies, 30 from pre‐eclamptic and 40 from otherwise complicated pregnancies. The association of the‘physiological changes’ of the spiral artery with uncomplicated pregnancy and their absence in pre‐eclampsia, as noted by Brosens and others, has been confirmed. In addition, in pregnancies without pre‐eclampsia, these changes were significantly more often absent with fetal growth retardation. The hypothesis is put forward that hypertension of pregnancy is a compensatory mechanism to ensure an adequate blood supply to the placenta when the‘physiological changes’ fail to occur.

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.
