Basal and post-prandial normalized plasma lysine (A), arginine and ornithine (B) concentrations at 262 days of gestation (median and IQR). (A) Basal plasma lysine concentration normalized with pre-experimental period measurements. Group F-test p-value < 0.05. (B,C) Post-prandial plasma arginine and ornithine concentrations normalized with basal measurements. MC: Multiparous Control, PC: Primiparous Control, PA: Primiparous Arginine. † indicates a statistically significant difference between PA and MC groups (p < 0.05). * indicates a statistically significant difference between PC and MC groups (p < 0.05).
