Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2008;15(10):1671-1672
Objective To study the relationship between blood lipid levels, insulin therapy of pregnant women with abnormal glucose metabolism and perinatal outcomes. Methods 380 pregnant women who were diag-nosed and treated for abnormal glucose metabolism were enrolled in this study,including 24 cases with diabetes melli-tus(DM),164 eases with gestation diabetes mellitus (GDM), 192 cases with gestation impaired 81ucose tolerance (GIGT). Among the 380 cases, 136 cases were performed insulin therapy with diet controlling,244 cases diet control-ling. Results The incidence of pre-eclampsia and preterm labor in the DM group(41.7% and 41.7% )was higher than that in GIGT group(15.6% and 20.7%)and GDM group(15.9% and 18. 3%) (P<0.05). Among the three groups ,the incidence of macrosomia, polyhydranmios and fetal distress had no significant difference( P>0.05 ). While the incipience of neonatal asphyxia,hypoglycemia in the DM group were all higher than that in GDM and GIGT group ( P<0.01 ). The newborn weights in insulin therapy group( 2891.5±1330.4 g) was lower than that in diet controlling group(3751.2±1025.3 g) ( P<0.05 ). Conclusion The blood lipid level of pregnant women with gestational ab-normal glucose metabolism is one of the effective indexes to prognose perinatal outcomes. Reducing blood lipid levelcan decrease the incidence of pre-eclampsia and preterm labor,neonatal asphyxia and hypoglycemia significantly. Di-agnosing and beginning therapy as soon as possible and using insulin are important,especially to reduce the rate of macrosomia and newbem weights.

Objective To evaluate clinical efficacy of shoulder dislocation combined with reverse Hill-sachs injury treated with Neer modified McLaughlin procedure. Methods Clinical data of seven patients for shoulder dislocation combined with reverse Hill-sachs injury in our hospital from October 2013 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. All of the patients were received Neer modified McLaughlin procedure with defect area of humeral head from 25%to 40%. The clinical outcomes were evaluated with plain radiographs, subjective satisfaction, range of shoulder motion, University of Califonia Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder scale and constant score, which were recorded at the final follow up. Results The mean follow-up period was (12.3 ± 4.3) months. No recurence of shoulder dislocation was found. At the final follow up, a patient was found a slight osteoarthritis based on radiographs. Two patients were very satisfied with the surgery and five patients were satisfied. The average anterior flexion, abduction and external rotation of shoulder were 145.7° ± 12.7° and 148.6° ± 15.7° and 47.1° ± 5.7° respectively. The average UCLA score and constant score were (26.6 ± 2.8) and (78.6 ± 7.2) respectively. Conclusion The Neer modified McLaughlin procedure shows a remarkable clinical effect for shoulder dislocation combined with reverse Hill-sachs injury. The short and mid-term effects are definite with few complications.

Objective To study the clinical and genetic features of Lowe syndrome. Methods The clinical data and test results of OCRL gene from two children with Lowe syndrome were analyzed. The related literatures were reviewed. Re-sults Two male patients all presented with low molecular proteinuria, hypercalciuria, rickets and nephrolithiasis. Patient 2 had renal tubular acidosis, glycosuria and cryptochism. Patient 1 was found to have abnormal vision and congenital cataract soon after birth and treated surgically. Patient 1 also had psychomotor retardation and the cranial magnetic resonance ima-ging (MRI) showed agenesis of the corpus callosum. Patient 2 did not have obviously extra-renal symptoms, but was found to have mild cataract by a meticulous ophthalmological examination. MRI showed cerebral hypoplasia and myelination delay and mental retardation was gradually appeared during follow-up. Two OCRL gene mutations were detected. A splice site mutation NG_008638.1:g.46846-46848delTAA/insC was found in patient 1 and a frame shift mutation NM_000276.3:c.321delC in exon 5 was found in patient 2. Both mutations were not reported previously. Conclusions The diagnosis of Lowe syndrome is mainly by clinical manifestations and test of OCRL gene. Lowe syndrome needs to be included in the differential diagnosis of a patient with congenital cataract and renal tubulopathy. Two novel mutations in the OCRL gene were identiifed.
