title: [Effect of parturition on serum glycerol and non-esterified fatty acids in obese and normal weight women].
abstract: Serum glycerol and NEFA content variations are examined before and after labor in obese and normal weighing women (35 subjects). Blood glycerol and NEFA are shown to increase before delivery. Glycerol values are shown to drop to normal immediately after delivery, while NEFA values diminish to a lesser extent. Statistical analysis shown that blood glycerol increase could be pregnancy-dependent in both normal weighing and obese women, but that NEFA increase could be pregnancy-dependent in normal weighing women only. Obesity increases blood glycerol and NEFA concentration considerably, thus masking the effects of pregnancy.
