Table 1. Clinical data on placental samples from “normal” and IUGR affected pregnancies.
| Subgroup | Maternal Age | BMI | SBP (mm/Hg) | DBP (mm/Hg) | Gestational Age at Delivery (weeks) | Birth Weight (g) | Fetal Gender (M/F) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Control (n = 53) | 31.5 (5.0)* | 24.9 (6.1) | 113.5 (12.4) | 67.6 (10.7)* | 34.0 (4.4) | 2443.0 (989.2)*** | 67.9%/32.1% |
| IUGR (n = 22) | 34.1 (3.9) | 22.6 (3.2) | 119.6 (14.7) | 75.2 (10.1) | 35.6 (2.9) | 1745.0 (632.3) | 45.4%/54.5% |
Clinical characteristics are shown for the control (gestationally matched) and IUGR patients recruited for placental sample collection. Data include maternal age, body mass index (BMI), systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, gestational age at delivery, birth weight and fetal gender. Data are represented as mean (SD) (n = 53 and 22). Independent samples T-test, *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.005.
