摘要：

A mathematical model of placental oxygen tranfer is used to argue that the experimentally observed control of fetal oxygen concentration in fetal lambs can be explained by the nature of oxyhemoglobin dissociation functions and the differences between these functions in fetal and maternal blood. It is not essential to the explanation to posit any mechanisms responding to a p02 sensor, or any changes in fetal, maternal or placental vascular structures. Equally unnecessary are assumed alterations in the physical or chemical structure of placental membranes. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
