In vivo and ex vivo cardiovascular haemodynamic responses of preterm growth-restricted lambs to perinatal asphyxia - PubMed Fetal growth restriction (FGR) arises from chronic hypoxia and increases the risk of cardiovascular dysfunction following perinatal asphyxia, although underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated whether cardiovascular responses to asphyxia are impaired in preterm FGR lambs and whether this …

New paper from Dr Zahrah Azman et al. shows preterm growth-restricted lambs with asphyxia have impaired vascular contractility and heightened cardiac adrenergic responses, insights that matter for neonatal cardiovascular outcomes. Read & share 👇 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41432623/ #FGR #CardioSci
