Placental Development in the Sheep and its Relation to Fetal Development: A qualitative and quantitative anatomic and histologic study

Open access
Stegeman, Jenny H. J.·1974·Bijdragen tot de Dierkunde

Abstract

A quantitative macroscopic and microscopic investigation was performed upon the placenta of the sheep. Macroscopic data were obtained from 235 cases of single pregnancy, 285 cases of twin pregnancy, 45 cases of triplet pregnancy, and from one case of quadrulet pregnancy. Macroscopic data obtained include: weight of the uterine horns, weight of the fetal membranes, weight of the total cotyledonary mass, and weight of the fetus. Microscopic data were mainly obtained from twin pregnancies (about 30 placentas in each of the nine age groups, group I being excluded from this investigation). The following microscopic data were calculated: vascularization of the caruncles (being the maternal component), degree of branching of the villi, total villous surface, vascularization of the villi, and total villous blood volume.

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.
