Journal ArticleDOI

One-carbon metabolism enzyme polymorphisms and uteroplacental insufficiency.

TL;DR: This study suggests the maternal and fetal MTR 2756 G allele is an important risk factor in the development of uteroplacental insufficiency and the maternal MTHFD1 1958 AA genotype may be associated with intrauterine growth restriction.
Journal ArticleDOI
