Persistent fetal cardiovascular remodeling in ART children.

Children conceived by ART have manifested cardiac and vascular remodeling. There is growing evidence that remodeling is present in fetal life and persists in postnatal life which suggest the presence of opportunities for early detection and potential intervention. The underlying mechanisms and the effect of potential confounders such as growth restriction or prematurity remain unclear. Scherrer U, et al, Eur Heart J. 2015 Jul 1;36(25):1583-9.
