DOI: 10.1161/atvbaha.122.318119
Abstract: Background: Animal studies have demonstrated that fetal exposure to high maternal cholesterol levels during pregnancy predisposes to aortic atheroma in the offspring. In humans, little is known about the consequences of this exposure on the… read more here.
