Postnatal growth in children born small for gestational age with and without smoking mother.

abstract：:Time-corrected measurements of transplacental and transamniotic electrical potentials were made in potassium-deficient rats on the 20th day of gestation. These averaged 6.4 mV and 2.0 mV, respectively, in the deficient group as compared with 14.3 and 18.4, respectively, in the controls. The measured maternal potassium...
