Objective To determine the human milk insulin(HMI) concentrations of healthy,gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and gestational impaired glucose tolerance (GIGT) lactating mothers and their correlative factors and to explore the effect of HMI on growth and development of neonates. Methods HMI of colostrum and mature milk collected from 148 healthy lactating mothers and 46 GDM/GIGT mothers were determined by radioimmnuoassay. The intergroup HMI levels were compared by Wilcoxon test. Results (1) In the GDM/GIGT group, colostrum HMI was 28.81 μU/ml(13. 84-43.14 μU/ml), significantly lower than that of mature milk which was 57.50 μU/ml(36. 70-82. 73 μU/ml) (Z=-4. 828,P=0. 000). HMI of mature milk in the healthy group was 35.88 μU/ml(25.91-46.85 μU/ml), lower than in the GDM/GIGT group (Z=-2.874,P=0.004). ( 2 ) The colostrum HMI of the mothers underwent cesarean section was 23.64 μU/ml (14.90-38.51 μU/ml) lower than in the vaginal delivery ones which was 38.89 μU/ml(23.14-65.54 μU/ml)(Z= -4. 510, P= 0. 000). (3) HMI of mature milk in mixed feeding cases was 42.58 μU/ml (26.60-73.06 μU/ml),significantly higher than that of breast feeding ones which was 36.32 μU/ml(26.00-46.16 μU/ml)(Z=-2. 377,P=0.019). (4) Both HMI in colostrum and mature milk were positively correlated with maternal BMI (P<0.05). Conclusions The mode of delivery significantly affects the HMI in colostrum. GDM/GIGT and the feeding patterns have some effects on HMI levels in mature breast milk. The HMI level is positively correlated with maternal BMI.

Objective To determine the clinical characteristics of neonatal asymmetric crying facies and to review the latest progress in clinical research of this condition. Methods Clinical and laboratory data of a case of neonatal asymmetric crying facies syndrome admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital in March, 2013 was reported. Clinical charateristics, chromosome abnormalities, treatment and prognosis of neonatal asymmetric crying facies reported in China were analyzed, and pertinent literatures in China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database and CQVIP Database were reviewed. Results Eighteen Chinese reports on this syndrome were retrieved and 48 patients, 31 males and 17 females including our patient, were analyzed. Twelve patients had neonatal asymmetric crying facies and 36 patients had neonatal asymmetric crying facies syndrome. Anomalies in these children included malformations of the heart (26 cases, 72.2%), ear (11 cases, 30.6%), gastrointestinal tract (4 cases, 11.1%), cleft palate (2 cases, 5.6%) and fingers (2 cases, 5.6%). Standard chromosome analysis in three studies was normal. In one case, chromosome 22q11.2 microdeletion was not found using flucrescence in situ hyloridization analysis. There were few studies with long-term follow-up in China. Conclusions Neonatal asymmetric crying facies are complicated with a high rate of other malformations. Identification of associated malformations and close follow-up are required, and intervention should be carried out earlier so as to ensure a good outcome.

Objective To evaluate the levels of ghrelin, adiponectin, leptin and true insulin in human milk from mothers with and without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and to assess the effects of these parameters on infant growth. Methods Fifty-two GDM mothers and their healthy infants (GDM group) and 49 non-GDM mothers and their healthy infants (control group) were enrolled from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital and Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2010 to August 2010. The levels of ghrelin, adiponectin, leptin and true insulin in colostrum and human milk 90 days postpartum (mature milk) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Infant weight, length and head circumference at birth and at 90 days old were measured. The two-sample t-test, sum-rank test and Spearman correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results Compared with the control group, ghrelin was significantly lower in human milk from GDM mothers both in colostrum [136.7 (102.7-181.4) vs 175.4 (137.5-235.0) ng/L, t= -2.737] and mature milk [111.8 (77.5-184.2) vs 210.9 (147.3-381.9) ng/L, t= -3.268]. Adiponectin was also significantly lower in human milk from GDM mothers both in colostrum [21.7 (14.6-51.8) vs 57.0 (23.1-113.9)μg/L, t=-2.858] and mature milk [11.7 (8.4-14.4) vs 15.1 (11.9-18.5)μg/L, t=-2.625], however, true insulin level was higher in colostrum [22.8 (13.4-50.2) vs 20.4 (7.8-30.8) mU/L, t=-2.007] and mature milk [33.6 (22.5-54.1) vs 23.5 (13.5-31.6) mU/L, t=-2.009]. The differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). (2) In the colostrums of the GDM group, true insulin level was negatively associated with ghrelin (r=-0.342), but positively associated with adiponectin (r=0.305). In the control group, the level of true insulin in mature milk was positive associated with leptin in colostrums( r=0.456)and mature milk(r=0.629). The differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). (3) In the GDM group, adiponectin level in colostrum was negatively associated with neonatal birth weight (r= - 0.323, P=0.025); the leptin/adiponectin ratio was negatively associated with neonatal birth weight (r= -0.403, P=0.005) and head circumference (r= -0.327, P=0.039) at birth. Adiponectin level in mature milk was negatively associated with infant length 90 days postpartum (r=-0.406, P=0.040). In the control group, the leptin/adiponectin ratio in colostrum was negatively associated with neonatal head circumference at birth (r= -0.370, P=0.024). Adiponectin level in mature milk was positively associated with infant weight 90 days postpartum (r=0.432, P=0.007). Conclusion Women with GDM have different levels of ghrelin, adiponectin and true insulin in their milk from the normal controls, which may affect infant growth.
