Figures

Figure 1 Schematics of potential NP transport including the uterine wall, the amniotic membrane enclosing the individual fetus and the placental barrier; potential NP transport pathways: (1) across the trophoblastic layers and through their transtrophoblastic channels within the placenta and (2) across the uterine wall and amniotic membrane. Hemotrichorial rat placentas are reported to have transtrophoblastic canaliculi of about 20¿25 nm diameter through the trophoblastic layers II and III connecting maternal and fetal blood across the placental barrier [29],[31]. There is convincing evidence that these channels are continuous [30],[33] and are also present in the human placenta. At gestation day 18?±?1 the yolk sac has considerably shrunk and is not shown in these schematics.

Figure 2 Comparison of pregnant versus non-pregnant rats: comparison of 24-hour retained198AuNP fractions relative to the initially administered dose in either pregnant rats in their 3rdtrimester or non-pregnant controls: upper panel 1.4 nm AuNP; middle panel 18 nm AuNP; lower panel 80 nm AuNP. Note that fractions are 198Au radioactivity- and, hence, Au-mass based. Compartments are the (A) mononuclear phagocytic system (MPS consisting of liver, spleen, lungs), (B) the remaining carcass (remainder) including skeleton, soft tissues, skin and all other organs and (C) the uterus with or without the progeny. MPS and remainder samples were corrected for 198AuNP in the remaining blood. Note the uterus of the pregnant rats comprises of the uterine walls, the placentas and all amnions with fetuses. Data are given as fractions of the intravenously injected 198AuNP doses. (n?=?4; * p?<?0.05; ** p?<?0.01; *** p?<?0.001; **** p?<?=0.0001). Statistical analysis by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by post hoc Sidak¿s multiple comparisons test.

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.
