Embolization did not change clearance of 3-O-[Me3H]glucose (Control = 392±185, IUGR = 142±40, IGF1 = 182±57 ml/min•kg; p = 0.30) or urea (Control = 50±83, IUGR = 98±21, IGF1 = 161±44 ml/min•kg; p = 0.48), and did not change uterine uptakes of lactate and oxygen (data not shown). This evidence concerns the gene IGF1 and fetal growth restriction.
