C. elegans are protected from lethal hypoxia by an embryonic diapause.

30 Jun 2009 At least 100 mammalian species exhibit embryonic diapause, where fertilized embryos arrest development in utero until suitable seasonal or nutritional environments are encountered. Delaying maternal investments in producing offspring allows these ... Read more...

Hypoxia during pregnancy in rats leads to early morphological changes of atherosclerosis in adult offspring.

18 Mar 2009 Exposure to an adverse intrauterine environment increases the risk of cardiovascular disease later in adult life. However, the time course relationship between prenatal hypoxia and the onset of atherosclerosis in offspring remains unknown. The ... Read more...

[Pregnancy and traveling]

8 Mar 2009 The second trimester is the safest time for travelling, because the pregnant woman feels generally most at ease and the risk of spontaneous abortion and pre-term labour is very low. Possible risks must be discussed with the obstetrician before ... Read more...
