Regulating needs
Amanda Nancy Sferruzzi-Perri
Mar 16, 2018
During pregnancy, the fetus requires nutrients supplied by the mother to grow and develop. However, the mother also requires sufficient resources to support the pregnancy, as well as, to maintain her health. Failure to regulate...
Symptom appraisal in uncertainty
Lauren C. Heathcote, Nele Loecher, Pamela Simon, Sheri Spunt, Abbie Jordan, Perri Tutelman, Sarah Cunningham, Lidia Schapira, Laura Simons
Dec 31, 2021
Objective: Somatic symptoms capture attention, demand interpretation, and promote health behaviors. Symptom appraisal is particularly impactful within uncertain health contexts such as cancer survivorship. Yet, little is known...
An Approach to Supporting Teaching With Data in the Social Sciences
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is moving rapidly toward integrating data literacy and data science in the undergraduate curriculum. This study interviewed instructors across the social sciences to identify ways...

Near to One's Heart
The development of the fetal heart is exquisitely controlled by a multitude of factors, ranging from humoral to mechanical forces. The gatekeeper regulating many of these factors is the placenta, an external fetal organ. As...
Characterization of placental endocrine function and fetal brain development in a mouse model of small for gestational age.
Conditions such as small for gestational age (SGA), which is defined as birthweight less than 10th percentile for gestational age can predispose to neurodevelopmental abnormalities compared to babies with normal birthweight....
Assessment of Placental Transport Function in Studies of Disease Programming.
Amanda N Sferruzzi-Perri
Feb 11, 2019
Environmental conditions during pregnancy affect fetal growth and development and program the offspring for poor future health. These effects may be mediated by the placenta, which develops to transfer nutrients from the mother...

Developmental programming of offspring adipose tissue biology and obesity risk
Abstract: Obesity is reaching epidemic proportions and imposes major negative health crises and an economic burden in both high and low income countries. The multifaceted nature of obesity represents a major health challenge...
Molecular mechanisms governing offspring metabolic programming in rodent models of in utero stress.
The results of different human epidemiological datasets provided the impetus to introduce the now commonly accepted theory coined as 'developmental programming', whereby the presence of a stressor during gestation predisposes...
Fused placentas
Twinning and placental fusion occur at a low frequency in species like humans and mice. They are linked to reduced birth weight and intertwin growth discrepancy with important consequences for perinatal survival. Despite this...

Jul 01, 2019
Spatial attention can improve performance in terms of speed and accuracy; this advantage may be mediated by brain processes at both poststimulus (reactive) and prestimulus (proactive) stages. Here, we studied how visuospatial...
