Figure 5. Human placental SLC38A2 expression is decreased in late- but not early-onset FGR.

Figure 5

(A) Birth weights and (B) placental relative SLC38A2 expression levels in AGA and FGR neonates, delivered at term (≥37 weeks gestation) or preterm (<37 weeks gestation, early-onset FGR only). Birth weights were statistically compared between groups by one-way ANOVA (P<0.001) with planned post-hoc comparisons using Sidak’s multiple comparisons test. SLC38A2 expression was statistically compared between groups using Kruskal–Wallis test (P<0.001) with planned post-hoc comparisons using Dunn’s multiple comparisons test. P-values for post-hoc tests given in figure. AGA n=15, late-onset FGR n=8, term early-onset FGR n=4, preterm early-onset FGR n=17. Boxes are median with IQR, whiskers are range.
