Anthropometry and bilirubin production.

Stevenson DK, Ochikubo CG, Rodgers PA, Kerner JA. J Perinatol. 1991; 11 (4): 340-2

Anthropometric measurements and total bilirubin formation (TBF) estimates were performed on infants born to normal and diabetic mothers. Although we do not exclude the theoretical possibility of a low-frequency occurrence of increased TBF in macrosomic infants of normal mothers, we can conclude that infants of mothers whose diabetes is well managed may have normal TBF.
