Gestational age and infection are greater predictors of placental histopathology than maternal prepregnancy BMI

2021-12-27

Abstract excerpt

The placenta undergoes morphological and functional adaptions to adverse exposures during pregnancy. The effects of suboptimal maternal body mass index (BMI), preterm birth, and infection on placental histopathological phenotypes remain unclear, despite the association between these conditions and poor offspring outcomes. We hypothesized that suboptimal maternal prepregnancy BMI and preterm birth (with and without...
