Centrality of the Umbilical Cord Insertion in a Human Placenta Influences the Placental Efficiency
Placenta, 11/03/09
Yampolsky M et al. – Non–central cord insertion has little measurable correlation with placental shape in observed or simulated placentas. However, placentas with a displaced cord show a markedly reduced transport efficiency, reflected in a larger value of beta and hence in a smaller birth weight for a given placental weight. Placentas with a non–central cord insertion have a sparser chorionic vascular distribution, as measured by the relative vascular distance.
