The endocrine pancreata of five overweight newborns (birthweight ranging from 3,800 g to 4,500 g) have been studied. Basal blood glucose and insulin levels were normal in these newborns. A marked and widespread B-cell nesidioblastosis was observed in relation to ten controls (birthweight ranging from 2,900 to 3,500 g). Morphometric analysis showed in the overweight newborns an increase in endocrine tissue, with special reference to B cells. These morphological aspects of the endocrine pancreas in relation to the birthweight were discussed.
对五名超重新生儿（出生体重在3800克至4500克之间）的胰腺内分泌组织进行了研究。这些新生儿的基础血糖和胰岛素水平正常。与十名对照新生儿（出生体重在2900克至3500克之间）相比，观察到明显且广泛的胰岛细胞成巢状增生。形态计量分析显示，超重新生儿的内分泌组织增加，尤其是B细胞。讨论了胰腺内分泌组织的这些形态学特征与出生体重的关系。
