A prospective study of 447 labours and the resulting neonates failed to reveal a significant difference between the mean serum bilirubin concentrations on the third and sixth day following spontaneous, accelerated or induced labour. A similar incidence of neonatal jaundice (bilirubin concentrations of 10 mg/100 or more) was found in the studied groups. However, there was a tendency for neonates born after accelerated or induced labour to have slightly higher bilirubin levels than those born after spontaneous labour. No strong dose dependent effect on the level of bilirubin concentration following Prostaglandin E2 induced labour was demonstrated.
一项针对447例分娩及所产新生儿的前瞻性研究未能揭示自然分娩、加速分娩或引产之后第三天和第六天的平均血清胆红素浓度之间存在显著差异。在所研究的各组中发现新生儿黄疸（胆红素浓度为10mg/100或更高）的发生率相似。然而，加速分娩或引产出生的新生儿的胆红素水平有略高于自然分娩出生的新生儿的趋势。未证明前列腺素E2引产对胆红素浓度水平有强烈的剂量依赖性效应。
