[Diabetes and pregnancy - a clinical and statistical analysis of 1800 pregnancies and deliveries in the years 1952 - 1971. 3. Birth weights percent values of newborn infants of diabetic mothers and further studies on the birth weight].
Newborn babies of diabetic mothers have a higher birth weight in comparison with newborns of nondiabetic mothers in the same gestational age (35. to 39. week). Body weight percentiles were estimated for new borns of diabetics (excluding stillborn babies), it was to be shown that birth weight lower than 2750 gm in the 38. to 39. gestational week (less than 10. percentile) characterizes "small for gestational age babies". Not any influence of maternal blood glucose values during the second part of pregnancy was to be seen. Severe toxaemias and vascular-renal complications (WHITE-class F) were statistically significant correlated with underweight in newborns. The lowest perinatal mortality was found in the weight class 3500 to 3999 gm.
