Altered renal function in growth-restricted newborn piglets

The effect of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) on renal hemodynamics and excretory functions was studied in 76 newborn piglets 12-27 h old. The experiments were performed on anesthetized animals divided into normal-weight piglets and IUGR piglets according to their birth weight. The "norm...

Description
Summary:The effect of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) on renal hemodynamics and excretory functions was studied in 76 newborn piglets 12-27 h old. The experiments were performed on anesthetized animals divided into normal-weight piglets and IUGR piglets according to their birth weight. The "normal-weight" category included animals with a birth weight >40th percentile (piglets heavier than 1,220 g); the IUGR category included animals with a birth weight >5th and
