    Author: Emara SH, El-Hawary MF, Abdel-Karim HA, El-Heneidy FM.
    Journal: S Afr Med J; 1976 Oct 16; 50(44):1792-4. PubMed ID: 1033608.
    Abstract:
    Total lipids, total cholesterol, phospholipids and inorganic phosphorus were determined in the amniotic fluid of 36 normal and 12 premature neonates. Total lipids, phospholipids and cholesterol were significantly decreased in the premature patients and the extent of decrease was more pronounced in patients who developed respiratory distress syndrome. On the other hand, inorganic phosphorus content of the amniotic fluid was within the normal range.
