Figure 1. Blood pressure (A) and fetal weight (B) during late gestation.
Resting mean arterial pressure (MAP) was increased (P < 0.001; panel A) in the reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP, n = 12) dams when contrasted to the normal pregnant (NP, n = 10) dams. RUPP (n = 12) fetuses were 25% lighter (P < 0.05) than fetuses from NP (n = 10) dams fetal (panel B).
