Having noted this phenomenon on a number of occasions, always without any
apparent problems in the pregnancy,
it occurs to me to wonder whether children whose mothers have had marked
elevation of AlkP during pregnancy are also those who get idiopathic benign
hyperphosphatasia of infancy/childhood. I know they're different isozymes,
but it's just a thought.
Has anyone looked at this?
