Silvija Cvitic - Gynecology

Author Information

Silvija Cvitic is affiliated with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical University of Graz, Graz, Austria, and the Department of Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Research Unit of Analytical Mass Spectrometry, Cell Biology and Biochemistry of Inborn Errors of Metabolism, Medical University of Graz, Graz, Austria. Her extensive research in the field of gynecology and obstetrics, particularly focusing on maternal and fetal health, underscores her prominent role in these departments.

Research Contributions

Silvija Cvitic has made significant contributions to the understanding of maternal and fetal health, especially in the context of glucose metabolism and its effects on pregnancy. Her research delves into the impact of maternal conditions like gestational diabetes on fetal development and placental function. Key areas of her work include investigating the differential programming of fetoplacental endothelial cells, the influence of fetal sex on maternal glucose metabolism, and the effects of maternal overweight on placental gene expression. Her studies are pivotal in elucidating the mechanisms underlying pregnancy complications and fetal development.
