[Phosphorus and calcium metabolism in the normal pregnant woman]
Abstract
The authors consider various aspects of calcium metabolism in pregnant women and the reciprocal influences of endogenous variations in the levels of parathormone, calcitonin, vitamin D, oestrogens and the interferences between calcium metabolism in the mother and that in the foetus. They note the precautions which should be taken for the neonatal calcium balance to be stable.
