title: Lack of subhourly variations in plasma unconjugated estriol levels in pregnant diabetic patients in the third trimester.
abstract: Analysis of 94 samples of blood collected from five pregnant diabetic patients in the third trimester revealed that there were no significant variations in plasma unconjugated estriol levels. Therefore, single random samples of blood collected at the same time every day are adequate for unconjugated estriol measurements.
