Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2015;30(1):46-49
Objective To discuss the risk factors for cardiac complications in infants of diabetic mothers (IDMs).Methods One hundred and seventy-one out of 228 IDMs hospitalized in Department of Pediatrics,Shenzhen Hospital of Peking University from Jan.2011 to Apr.2014,were involved,among them,there were 171 cases who had the complete mother's data during pregnancy,and they were received B ultrasonography whin 1 week after birth.All the infants were divided into 2 groups according to echocardiography within 1 week after birth:the observation group (the patients had cardiac complications) and the control group (the patients had normal heart).Conditions of IDMs and their mothers between the 2 groups were recorded and compared.Results In the 171 IDMs,there were 69 cases(38male and 31 female) in the observation group and 102 cases(59 males and 43 females) in the control group.There were 24 preterm infants,16 large for gestational age(LGA) infants in the observation group,while 47 preterm infants and 15 LGA in the control group,and which had no statistical difference between the both groups(x2 =0.129,2.163,1.995 ; all P > 0.05).In the observation group,there were 7 (4.1%) newborns with hypoglycemia,24 (14.0%) women with advanced maternal age,24(14.0%) women with other gestational complications,19(11.1%) women having good control of their glucose serum levels,and 9(5.3%) women with impaired glucose tolerance.All the mentioned factors had statistical differences when compared with the control group[1 (0.6%) case,19 (11.1%) cases,15 (8.8%) cases,80(66.8%) cases,26(15.2%) cases] (x2 =7.752,5.707,9.423,43.735,3.917 ;all P < 0.05,0.01).Logistic regression showed that women with other gestational complications as risk factors(OR =3.29,95% CI 1.248-8.671),while having a good control of the glucose serum levels acted as a protectable factor(OR =0.098,95% CI 0.045-0.217).Conclusions IDMs are prone to have cardiac complications if their mothers couldn't control the glucose serum levels during pregnancy,with other gestational complication and advanced maternal age and with more serious diabetes.
4.The use of B-type natriuretic peptide and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide concentrations to guide diagnosis and treatment of patent ductus arteriosus in preterm infants
Journal of Chinese Physician 2016;18(8):1272-1275
The high morbidity and compliments of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants are reported,but the diagnostic and prognostic appraisal of PDA is still debatable.The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are found efficient in diagnosis of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) in preterm infants,and also helpful in therapy decisions and prediction of treatment response.However,the type of assay and cut-off values have not yet reached a consent,so that further researches are needed.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of ultrasonography in detecting parathyroid lesions in the patients with hyperparathyroidism. Methods The results of ultrasonography were compared with operative and histologic findings, and other imaging techniques such as 99m-Tc-sestamibi scintigraphy and CT in 210 patients with proved hyperparathyroidism.Results The overall sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography in detecting parathyroid lesions were 68.62%, 93.79%. Lesions at lower pole of thyroid were more likely to be detected than ectopic ones. Ultrasonography was helpful in diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma, hyperplasia or carcinoma when combined with clinical manifestations. Conclusions Ultrasonography is a useful means in preoperative localizing of hyperparathyroidism.

Objective To explore the outcomes of the oncology, the fertility and pregnancy on patients with early-stage cervical cancer after undergoing fertility-sparing treatments, and to investigate its value on clinical treatment. Methods A total of 29 patients with cervical cancer (stage Ⅰa2-Ⅰb1) who had undergone the fertility-sparing treatments in Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiaotong University from February 2010 to September 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Surgical procedures included transvaginal cervical cold knife conization (CKC)+laparoscopic pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLD) or total laparoscopic uterine cervix extensive resection (RT; contains PLD); 48 patients with early cervical cancer under going laparoscopic uterine extensive resection (RH; contains PLD) by the same group of physicians in the same period were chosen as the control group. The perioperative related indicators, postoperative specimen examination, pregnancies after surgery and postoperative tumor follow-up results were retrospectively analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results (1) Among these 29 patients in the study group, 26 cases were underwent the fertility-sparing surgery quick frozen pathological examinations were positive in 3 cases, which underwent total laparoscopic RT eventually. (2) The perioperative related indicators: compared with the study group and the control group, the operation time [(182 ± 21), (147 ± 24) minutes, respectively] has significant difference (t=6.563, P<0.01). There were no significant difference (P>0.05) in intra-operative blood loss [(102±26), (99±34) ml], postoperative aerofluxus time [(1.3±0.4), (1.1±0.9) days], the average length of hospital stay [(11.2 ± 2.1), (10.6 ± 3.5) days], rate of urine retention [10%(3/29), 10%(5/48)] and rate of postoperative infection [3%(1/29), 2%(1/48)]. (3)Postoperative specimen examination:compared with the study group and the control group, there were no significant difference (P>0.05) innumber of removed lymphatic nodes (23.4 ± 4.1, 22.8 ± 3.9), length of cardinal ligament [(2.9 ± 0.5), (3.0 ± 0.6) cm], lengthof uterosacral ligament [(2.6±0.7), (2.8±0.4) cm], length of removed vaginal [(3.4±0.3), (3.5±0.3) cm]. (4) Pregnancies after surgery and postoperative tumor follow-up results:in the study group, only 14 patients had fertility requirement after treatments. Pregnancies occurred in 5 women (5/14), which included1 case of full-term labor, 1 case of preterm labor, and 3 cases of spontaneous abortion. The Average follow-up time in postoperative patients of the study group and control group was 29.4, and 30.2 months respectively. In follow-up period, compare with study group and the control group, there was no significant difference (χ2=0.004, P>0.05) in the recurrence rate [4%(1/26), 4%(2/48)]. Conclusion Fertility-sparing surgery of early-stage cervical cancer is safe but the outcome of the fertility and pregnancy is still need toimprove.
