Distribution of cardiac output in ovine pregnancy
Abstract
Cardiac output and organ blood flows were measured in 6 nonpregnant and 24 pregnant ewes from 38 to 141 days of gestation employing radionuclide-labeled microspheres. From the nonpregnant state to term increases in cardiac output, from 73.7 +/- 4.6 ml/min-kg of maternal weight to 148 +/- 2.4 ml/min-kg, and heart rate, from 88.5 +/- 10.3 to 106 +/- 4.6 beats/min, were noted, while mean arterial blood pressure was unchanged. Near term, the blood flows to the uterus and mammary gland represented approximately 18% of cardiac output. The blood flow to nonreproductive organs increased from 76.6 +/- 6.8 ml/min-kg of nonreproductive tissue in the nonpregnant state to 132 +/- 3.5 ml/min-kg at 130-140 days' gestation (P less than 0.01). No significant changes in renal blood flow were detected.

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.
