Front cover : The image on the Cover image illustrates Fetal growth in utero correlates with aging of fetal tissues (placenta and fetal membranes). Fetal tissue aging begins at embryogenesis and their longevity is associated with duration of pregnancy. Aging of fetal tissue and aging associated sterile inflammation can trigger parturition associated changes.
