      Moderate reduction of dietary protein (from 25% to 8% casein) in pregnant rats, calorically compensated by carbohydrates, gives rise to ‘hidden prenatal malnutrition’ (HPM) in the offspring since it does not alter body and ...
    • Barra, Rafael; Morgan, Carlos; Sáez Briones, Patricio; Reyes Parada, Miguel; Burgos, Héctor; Morales, Bernardo; Hernández, Alejandro (Oxford University Press, 2019)
