title: [Effect of hyperglycemia on rat embryos in vitro].
abstract: Using whole embryo culture, the effect of hyperglycemia on the embryogenesis of rat was studied. Hyperglycemia could cause death, malformation and intrauterine growth retardation of embryos. The effect of hyperglycemia was more obvious in the early embryogenesis of rat in vitro, and showed a dose related effect. The results suggested that the blood glucose level of diabetic women should be controlled strictly during pregnancy, particularly in the first trimester of pregnancy. It may play an important role in preventing death, congenital malformation and intrauterine growth retardation of fetus in diabetic women.
