Abstract
THE purpose of this paper is to present the results of our experience with 140 pregnancies in diabetes from 1932 to September 1, 1950, with special reference to factors influencing fetal mortality. The first 18 cases of this series have been previously reported in an earlier communication.1 Except for a small group of 14 patients treated with diethylstilbestrol by mouth,2 the patients have had no specific treatment other than careful medical management of their diabetes, and delivery according to the obstetric indications, as discussed by Hurwitz and Irving1 in 1937. Insulin therapy has reduced the fetal mortality from about SO . . .Keywords
