J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1989;32(10):1402-1407.   Published online October 31, 1989
Insulin seems to exert an inhibitory effect on lung maturation. The incidence of respiratory distress syndrome in neonates of diabetic mothers is significantly greater than that observed in age-and weight-matched controls. Thus hyperinsulinemia may be an important factor in the developemnt of RDS. We investigated the relationship between cord blood insulin concentration and subsequent develop- ment of RDS in 32 premature neonates born at Koryo...
