TL;DR: Exposure to moderate levels of alcohol during pregnancy results in impaired kidney development and leads to a permanent nephron deficit, highlighting that even at moderate levels, alcohol consumption during pregnancy can have deleterious long‐term outcomes and should be avoided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Respiratory modulation of sympathetic nerve activity is enhanced in male rat offspring following uteroplacental insufficiency
TL;DR: Observations add support to the view that altered respiratory modulation of sympathetic activity represents a common mechanism involved in the development of several forms of hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alterations in fetal urine production during prolonged hypoxaemia induced by reduced uterine blood flow in sheep: mechanisms
TL;DR: It is concluded that prolonged fetal hypoxaemia affects renal haemodynamics and the reabsorptive capacity of the renal tubules, resulting in a diuresis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Fatty Acid Species and Quantity Consumed by the Breastfed Infant Are Important for Growth and Development
Alexandra D George,Alexandra D George,Mary E. Wlodek,Mary E. Wlodek,Kevin Murray,Donna T. Geddes +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used linear regression and Pearson's correlation to identify associations between HM FA composition, HM FA intake, maternal characteristics and infant growth and developmental outcomes, and found that infant intake of a number of FAs was positively related to infant growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Source of inhibin in ovine fetal plasma and amniotic fluid during late gestation: half-life of fetal inhibin.
Susan Miller,Sarin Wongprasartsuk,Ian R Young,Mary E. Wlodek,James R. McFarlane,D. M. De Kretser,Graham Jenkin +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the major source of circulating ir-inhibin in male fetal plasma, but not in amniotic fluid, is the gonads.
