A study was conducted to determine the water and nitrogen content of the placentae from anemic and nonanemic Nigerian women. The mean water content values were 84.9% and 85.3%, respectively, and this difference was not statistically significant. Placental nitrogen values were higher in anemic women than they were in nonanemic women, but the difference was not statistically significant. The results of this study indicate that placental hypertrophy which is associated with anemia is not due to water retention by the placenta.
开展了一项研究，以确定尼日利亚贫血和非贫血女性胎盘的水分和氮含量。平均水分含量值分别为84.9%和85.3%，这种差异无统计学意义。贫血女性的胎盘氮含量值高于非贫血女性，但差异无统计学意义。该研究结果表明，与贫血相关的胎盘肥大并非由于胎盘潴留水分所致。
