Abstract

ABSTRACT The urinary excretion of individual adrenocortical steroids has been studied throughout the course of normal pregnancy and in complications of pregnancy, including toxaemia, diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. The pattern of U. V. absorbing and reducing compounds was qualitatively the same for all urines. Of the reducing steroids, three have been identified as allopregnanetetrolone, pregnanetrioldione and pregnanetetrolone. The quantitative changes of the individual compounds in the course of normal pregnancy and in complications of pregnancy are discussed.
