چکیده

Norbert Freinkel?s lecture ?Of Pregnancy and Progeny? was published by the American Diabetes Association?s journal Diabetes in December of 1980. In the lecture, Freinkel argued that pregnancy [2] changes the way that the female body breaks down and uses food. Through experiments that involved pregnant women as well as infants, Freinkel established the body?s maternal metabolism and how it affects both the mother and the infant. Freinkel?s main focus of research in the latter part of his life was diabetes, specifically in pregnant women. Diabetes occurs in around one to three percent of all pregnancies, which is 30,000 to 90,000 women a year in the US. Freinkel?s article indicates that pregnancy [2] influences the metabolism in all pregnant females and that pregnancy [2] complicated by diabetes is only an exaggeration of what occurs in all pregnant women. Subsequently, many doctors more closely monitored pregnant women and their blood sugar and insulin levels, as doctors were informed that all pregnant women have the capacity to become diabetic.
