If Roe v. Wade were reversed...

...there's one impact I don't see discussed.

Roe v. Wade is based upon a SCOTUS interpretation of the Constitution in which a right to privacy, while not explicitly stated, is implied. If that decision were to be reversed and that precedent of the implied right gone, what would that mean for a nation in a post-Patriot Act world?
