Neonatal Deaths Among Infants of Diabetic Mothers: Postmortem Findings in Ninety-Five Infants
Abstract
In spite of modern obstetric and medical management, the total fetal loss in pregnancies complicated by maternal diabetes mellitus is still appreciably higher than in nondiabetic women. The newborn infant of the diabetic mother shows anatomical and biochemical peculiarities which may be indicative of the mechanisms of fetal wastage operative under these conditions. For this reason, the detailed postmortem findings in a uniquely large series of these infants are reported. Gellis and Hsia1have recently reported on a group of 934 pregnancies among women with diabetes. Of the 721 liveborn infants in their series, 104 died during early infancy. The present report is based on those 95 who were examined post mortem. These infants were delivered at the Faulkner Hospital, Boston, and the Boston Lying-in Hospital, between 1940 and 1956, and include 29 infants described by Warren and LeCompte2and 40 reported by Winter and Gellis.3Because

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
