  • Title: Amniotic fluid total lipids, lipid phosphorus, phospholipids and cholesterol in diabetic women.
    Author: Emara SH, el-Hawary MF, Abdel-Karim HA.
    Journal: Acta Biol Med Ger; 1977; 36(10):1445-50. PubMed ID: 616160.
    Abstract:
    Total lipids, lipid phosphorus, phospholipids and cholesterol were determined in amniotic fluid of 36 normals and 6 mothers with diabetes. Total lipids, lipid phosphorus and phospholipids are significantly decreased in diabetic cases and the decrement was more pronounced in the cases with stillbirth or intrapartum deaths or infants with respiratory distress syndrome. Total cholesterol was significantly decreased in the same cases mentioned above. However, in spite of this decrease the ratio of total cholesterol to total lipids was constant except in cases with prolonged intrauterine fetal death where it was increased.
