A study of infants who were small-for-dates is described. A proportion of them developed hypoglycaemia, and in these, intravenously administered glucose disappeared abnormally rapidly from the blood, shown by a raised kG value. Some of these infants also showed raised levels of plasma insulin. Those with the high levels of plasma insulin showed significant change in fasting `true' blood glucose, and mean maximum plasma insulin levels at the end of the first week of life. Hypoglycaemia of the newborn is probably more closely related to other factors as yet still undefined, than to changes in plasma insulin alone.
本文描述了一项对小样儿婴儿的研究。其中一部分婴儿出现了低血糖,在这些婴儿中,静脉注射的葡萄糖从血液中异常迅速地消失,这通过升高的kG值得以体现。这些婴儿中的一些还表现出血浆胰岛素水平升高。血浆胰岛素水平高的婴儿在空腹“真实”血糖以及出生后第一周结束时的平均最大血浆胰岛素水平方面有显著变化。新生儿低血糖可能与其他尚未明确的因素关系更为密切,而非仅与血浆胰岛素的变化有关。
