Abstract

Haemoglobin A_lc has been measured in diabetic and non-diabetic pregnant women at delivery as well as haemoglobin F adducts in paired cord blood of their infants. Haemoglobin A_lc and haemoglobin F adduct estimates covariate in a group of diabetic and non-diabetic pregnant women/infants studied by ion exchange chromatography, but not when studied by isoelectric focusing. Haemoglobin A_lc and birth weight ratio covariate when haemoglobin A_l, is determined by isoelectric focusing but not when estimated by ion exchange chromatography. Similar results appear from the studies of others indicating that mothers' haemoglobin A_lc, covariates with cord blood haemoglobin F adducts and with the birth weight ratio, though correlation is scant because of extensive and efficient control of diabetic pregnant women.
