Objective:To study the risk factors for abnormal glucose metabolism in pregnant women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on pregnant women who had two consecutive deliveries and were was complicated by GDM in the previous pregnancy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2011 to May 2019. Clinical data of both pregnancies were collected, including general information, fasting blood glucose in early pregnancy and 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) results, glycosylated hemoglobin A1c and blood lipid profile at 24-28 gestational weeks. The incidence and risk factors of abnormal glucose metabolism in these cases during the present pregnancy were analyzed. Analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis test, SNK- q or LSD- t-test, and Chi-square test were used for data analysis. Single-factor logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the high-risk factors, and multifactor logistic regression analysis was performed to fit the model. Variable collinearity diagnosis was performed using the coldiag2 command. Results:(1) A total of 455 cases were enrolled in the study. According to the fasting glucose level in the first trimester and the OGTT results in the present pregnancy, they were divided into three groups: normal OGTT group ( n=240), GDM group ( n=189), and pre-gestational diabetes mellitus group (PGDM, n=26). The incidence of abnormal glucose metabolism in these patients during the present pregnancy was 47.2% (215/455). (2) Those with a history of GDM had higher pre-pregnancy weight, lower weight gain, higher cesarean section rate, smaller gestational age at delivery, and higher neonatal birth weight in the present pregnancy than those in the previous pregnancy [(55.6±8.5) vs (53.3±7.9) kg, t=-4.059; (11.2±4.2) vs (12.5±4.4) kg, t=4.435; 47.9% (218/455) vs 33.0% (150/455), χ2=20.481; (38.6±1.3) vs (38.8±1.3) weeks, t=2.288; (3 177±463) and (3 114±460) g, t=-2.044; all P<0.05]. (3) In the PGDM group, the 2-h plasma glucose level after 75 g OGTT was higher than that in the previous pregnancy [(11.4±1.1) vs (9.9±1.7) mmol/L, t=-3.299, P=0.002]. (4) In the present pregnancy, the PGDM group had the highest fasting blood glucose in early pregnancy, followed by the GDM group and the normal OGTT group [4.6 mmol/L (4.2-7.6 mmol/L), 4.3 mmol/L (4.0-4.6 mmol/L) and 4.1 mmol/L (3.8-4.4 mmol/L), χ2=34.498, P<0.001]. The PGDM group had the least postpartum weight retention, followed by the normal OGTT group and the GDM group [(1.2±3.9), (1.6±3.9), and (2.6±4.9) kg, F=3.086, P<0.05]. (5) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed postpartum weight retention and the 1-h and 2-h plasma glucose levels after 75 g OGTT in the previous pregnancy were independent risk factors for abnormal glucose metabolism in pregnant women with a history of GDM (postpartum weight retention: OR=1.054, 95% CI: 1.005-1.106; 1-h plasma glucose: OR=1.284, 95% CI: 1.087-1.516; 2-h plasma glucose: OR=1.272, 95% CI: 1.071-1.511). Conclusions:The incidence of abnormal glucose metabolism is higher in subsequent pregnancy in women with GDM history, which may be related to various factors, such as postpartum weight retention and plasma glucose after 75 g OGTT in the previous pregnancy.

BACKGROUND: Acetabular malignant tumor reconstruction is to obtain pelvic stability and lower limb walking function to excise the tumor at safe margin.Excision range has been evaluated by MRI,CT,X-ray,which are subjective and lack preoperative design.Computer-aided three-dimensional reconstruction can evaluate tumor erosion range from all planes to accurately excise the tumor.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of computer aided design in the treatment of acetabular malignant tumor.METHODS: One case with acetabular hemangiosarcoma was checked with lamellar CT scanning,which acquired some two-dimensional data in disease area.The three-dimensional reconstruction of anatomical model,design of cutting bone extent,design of individual prosthesis and sham operation were made by computer.Based on computer aided design proposal,acetabular tumor was resected,pelvic ring and right hip articulation were reconstructed with allogeneic semi-pelvis and individual total hip replacement.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The patient began to non-weight bearing walk with double crutches 2 months after operation.At6 months,the patient walked normally.The right hip joint motion was good with no pain.Postoperative X-ray film displayed individual prosthesis matched to pelvis.The patient fell a little numbness of skin in the lateral of right hip.No phlebothrombosis,prosthesis loosening or dislocation was found.Computer aided design has a good perspective of application in the treatment of acetabular malignant tumor.Individualized treatment can improve operation accuracy,reliability,convenience and curative effect.

The dual luciferase reporter gene system provides sensitive readout, while it relies on a constitutively-expressed control gene for readout normalization. However, most standard control reporter genes are not constitutively expressed under all conditions. Here, we report an effective method to construct a control reporter plasmid for the dual luciferase reporter gene system that would be suitable for hormone research in silkworm cell lines. First, we modified BmVgP78M, a stably-expressed constitutive promoter in silkworm cells by mutating its hormone-related element. Then, we constructed the pRL-VgP78M control reporter plasmid by replacing the SV40 promoter and chimeric intron sequences in pRL-SV40 with the BmVgP78M sequence. Finally, we confirmed that the pRL-VgP78M control reporter plasmid could be stably expressed in silkworm cell lines via cell transfection experiments, and it was unresponsive to the induction of ecdysone, juvenile hormone, or their transcription factors. We thus obtained a control reporter plasmid pRL-VgP78M that could be expressed stably and moderately in silkworm cells. It can be readily used as the control reporter plasmid of the dual luciferase reporter gene system for hormone research in silkworm cell lines. It will also provide a reference for construction of control reporter plasmids of dual luciferase reporter gene systems that are adaptable to cell lines isolated from other species.
