Abstract
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. Vascular dysfunction occurs in adult offspring from animal models of IUGR including maternal undernutrition, but the influence of reduced fetal oxygen supply on adult vascular function is unclear. Myogenic responses, essential for vascular tone regulation, have not been evaluated in these offspring. We hypothesized that 7-mo-old offspring from hypoxic (12% O(2); H) or nutrient-restricted (40% of control; NR) rat dams would show greater myogenic responses than their 4-mo-old littermates or control (C) offspring through impaired modulation by vasodilators. Growth restriction occurred in male H (P < 0.01), male NR (P < 0.01), and female NR (P < 0.02), but not female H, offspring. Myogenic responses in mesenteric arteries from males but not females were increased at 7 mo in H (P < 0.01) and NR (P < 0.05) vs. C offspring. There was less modulation of myogenic responses after inhibition of nitric oxide synthase (P < 0.05), prostaglandin H synthase (P < 0.005), or both enzymes (P < 0.001) in arteries from 7-mo male H vs. C offspring. Thus reduced vasodilator modulation may explain elevated myogenic responses in 7-mo male H offspring. In contrast, there was increased modulation of myogenic responses in arteries from 7-mo female H vs. C or NR offspring after inhibition of both enzymes (P < 0.05). Thus increased vasodilator modulation may maintain myogenic responses in female H offspring at control levels. In summary, vascular responses in adult offspring from adverse intrauterine environments are impaired in a gender-specific, age-dependent, and maternal insult-dependent manner, with males more profoundly affected.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
