Levels of tocopherol, cholesterol and triglycerides were estimated in paired maternal and umbilical cord plasma samples. All three constituents were significantly lower in cord plasma than in maternal plasma. Since tocopherol and lipid share a common lipoprotein carrier system, the present data suggests that the reduction observed in cord circulation could be due to the inability of the fetus to synthesise these carrier proteins. There was no relation between maternal vitamin E concentrations and infant birth weights.
在配对的母体和脐带血浆样本中估计了生育酚、胆固醇和甘油三酯的水平。脐带血浆中这三种成分的含量均显著低于母体血浆。由于生育酚和脂质共享一个共同的脂蛋白载体系统，目前的数据表明，在脐带循环中观察到的减少可能是由于胎儿无法合成这些载体蛋白。母体维生素E浓度与婴儿出生体重之间没有关系。
