Abstract
AbstractTo assess factors contributing to cord venous glucose homeostasis in term infants delivered by elective cesarean section.Observational study of women-infant pairs at delivery. Biochemical and clinical data were collected about factors which might affect the levels of glucose, lactate, norepinephrine, epinephrine, cortisol, human growth hormone, glucagon, and insulin.In the context of this data-set, three models explained a substantial amount regarding the variation: 79% of the variation in cord glucose levels is explained by levels of maternal glucose, cord venous pH, and cord lactate; 77% of the variation of cord lactate is explained by levels of cord venous pH, valine, maternal lactate and glucose, and cord norepinephrine; and 71% of the variation in cord norepinephrine is explained by levels of cord venous pO: Term infants delivered by cesarean section are relatively hyperinsulinemic (insulin:glucose ratio of 2.4) and glucose levels are strongly associated with maternal glucose levels, cord pO
