Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 1998;0(02):-
Objective To investigate the effect of perinatal care on the reduction of the maternal and perinatal mortality. Methods The perinatal care and the relationship between the maternal and perinatal mortality during 1980 to 1997 were analysed. The factors that related to the morality were studied. Results The maternal mortality rate was significantly decreased from 31.7/10~5 live births in 1960 to 16.1/10~5 live births in 1992~1997. The main cause of maternal deaths in 1960' was obstetrical factors, but in 1997 it was pregnancy complications. The perinatal mortality rate was 21.2‰ in 1980~1981 ,and was 10.9‰ in 1992~1997. The factors related to the maternal and perinatal mortality including the perinatal care, high risk pregnancy,and birth weight were analysed, the specific mortality rate of each factor was calculated. Conclutions The two mortalities can be used to evaluate the result of perinatal care,and are important feedback information for making health care policy. Pernatal care play an important role in the reduction of maternal and perinatal mortality.

Objective To evaluate the different effect of 50 g glucose challenge test (GCT) on screening the glucose intolerance at different gestational age. Methods Two thousand pregnant women were divided into 2 groups(1000 in each). Women in group A received 50 g GCT at 14 and 28 gestational weeks respectively and 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were performed in those cases with abnormal 50 g GCT. 50 g GCT was performed after fasting at 14 gestational weeks and repeated one hour after a meal at 28 gestational weeks. Women in group B were screened by 50 g GCT at 28 gestational weeks and followed by 75 g OGTT for those with abnormal 50 g GCT. The diagnostic effect of 50 g GCT for screening at different weeks of gestation with different ways was evaluated. Results (1)The rate of abnormal result of 50 g GCT was higher in fasting cases than that of cases testing after meal (15.6% vs 12.2%, P

Objective To investigate the clinical significance and safety of liquid-based cytology (thinprep cytologic test, TCT ) in pregnant women and cytological characteristics of the smears during pregnancy. Methods TCT were performed in 1951 pregnant women (group A), 3752 gynecological out-patients(group B)and 5069 routine screening women (group C ). The age of the women was ranged from 20 to 39 years. The cytological preparations were analyzed using TCT method following the Bathesda system (TBS) standard. Results (1) The incidence of abnormal epithelial patterns in groups A, B and C was 23.58%(460/1951), 19.22%(721/3752) and 13.40%(679/5069) respectively (P0.05). Conclusions TCT smear screening is necessary, safe and acceptable for routine prenatal tests. There is no difference in the cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions between pregnant and non-pregnant women.
