Objective To assess the correlation between the pregnancy‐associated plasma protein A (PAPP‐A)level with gesta‐tional diabetes mellitus(GDM )in primiparous women .Methods The nonparametric test and Logistic regression analysis were used to retrospectively analyze 168 pregnant women of GDM and 273 normal pregnant women ,including age ,body weight ,PAPP‐A ,freeβ‐human chorionic gonadotropin(fβ‐hCG) .Results The age had significant difference between GDM group and control group(P<0 .01) ,the PAPP‐A concentration and corrected multiple of the median (MoM )of PAPP‐A in the GDM group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0 .01) .Conclusion Low level of PAPP‐A during early pregnant stage in primiparas is strongly associated with GDM and can be used as the risk factor of GDM .

ObjectiveTo establish a managing mode for illegal and irregular acts of occupational medical examination (OME) institutions to the requirements of the new situation. Methods The OME institutions from the “Guangdong Province Key Occupational Disease Monitoring and Management Platform” were selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. The clues of suspected illegal and irregular acts of OME institutions were found and submitted to the local health commission for investigation and managed according to the case information monitoring and on-site quality assessment. The OME institutions found to have illegal and irregular acts were filed and investigated according to the national law after investigation and verification. A “follow-up inspection” was conducted on five OME institutions for closed loop management. Results A total of 12 OME institutions were found to have suspected illegal and irregular acts, including seven institutions that did not meet the filing requirements for effective personnel, five institutions that conducted projects beyond the scope without filing to the provincial health authorities within 15 work days from the start of the project, and two institutions that failed to fulfill the obligation of informing and reporting to the health authorities, employers, and workers as required. After submitting relevant clues and evidence to the local health commission for investigation and management, seven institutions were not given penalty, and five institutions were given administrative penalties including two institutions were fined and warned, and three institutions were warned. No illegal or irregular acts were found in the five institutions inspected during the “follow-up inspection”. Conclusion It is beneficial to explore the managing mode of “clue discovery, clue submission, investigation and disposal, follow-up inspection” for OME institutions suspected of illegal and irregular acts, which helps urge OME institutions to work in accordance with laws and regulations and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of workers' occupational health.
