GESTATIONAL - AGE - SPECIFIC REFERENCE INTERVALS FOR BLOOD PRESSURE IN NORMAL PREGNANCY IN A SOUTHERN CHINESE POPULATION

Gestational - age - specific reference intervals for blood pressure in normal pregnancy in a Southern Chinese population

Abstract Objective Physiological blood pressure changes in pregnancy are insufficiently defined.This paper describes the blood pressure changes across healthy pregnancies in a Southern Chinese population to present gestational - age - specific blood pressure ranges with smoothed centiles (3rd, 10th, 50th, 90th, and 97th).Methods Antenatal blood pre

Identification of genes differentially expressed between a somatotrope and a lactotrope pituitary cell lines by representational difference analysis

The molecular and cellular processes leading to the development and differentiation of the anterior pituitary gland is well characterized both in rodents and in human and rely on the highly regulated expression of transcription and growth factors.Yet regulatory mechanisms and signature molecules implicated in postnatal pituitary homeostasis, cell a
