Mountain living linked to pregnancy complications: researchers investigate why
NCT ID NCT02391519
Summary
This study aims to understand why pregnant women living at high altitudes have higher rates of fetal growth restriction and preeclampsia. Researchers will compare tissue samples from women giving birth in Denver versus Summit County, Colorado, to see if altitude affects blood vessel function. The findings could help explain these pregnancy complications and lead to better understanding of their causes.
