Objective:To explore the effects of Levothyroxine Sodium (L-T4) treatment on coagulation function and adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with hypothyroidism during pregnancy in early and mid-to-late pregnancy.Methods:A total of 120 patients with hypothyroidism during pregnancy who were treated by L-T4 in Linyi Central Hospital from Mar. 2021 to Mar. 2024 were included, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. According to the gestational age of the patients at the time of treatment, 64 cases with a gestational age of <12 weeks were included in the early pregnancy group, and 56 cases with a gestational age of ≥12 weeks were included in the mid-to-late pregnancy group. The serum thyroid hormone indexes, coagulation function indexes, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and neuropsychological development of the offspring were compared between the two groups. Statistical analyses were conducted using independent/paired t-tests and chi-square tests.Results:After treatment, there were no significant differences in the thyroid hormone indexes and coagulation function indexes between the early pregnancy group and the middle and late pregnancy group ( P>0.05). The incidence of fetal growth restriction and gestational hypertension in the early pregnancy group was 10.94% (7/64) and 17.19% (11/64), and that in the middle and late pregnancy group was 26.79% (15/56) and 33.93% (19/56), respectively. The incidence in the early pregnancy group was significantly lower than that in the middle and late pregnancy group ( χ2=5.010, 4.464, P<0.05). The developmental quotient (DQ) of the offspring in the early pregnancy group at 6 months of age in various areas of neuropsychological development (social behavior, language, adaptability, fine motor skills and gross motor skills) was significantly higher than that in the middle and late pregnancy group. The DQ of the first trimester group was (97.82±7.25) points, (94.59±6.85) points, (95.87±8.02) points, (96.08±7.25) points, and (98.34±8.07) points. The DQ of the second trimester group was (92.54±7.06) points, (90.45±6.14) points, (91.01±7.51) points, (91.24±7.08) points, and (92.74±7.38) points. The DQ of the first trimester group was significantly higher than that of the second trimester group ( t=4.029, 3.466, 3.411, 3.688, 3.946, P<0.05) . Conclusion:L-T4 treatment in early or mid- to late-pregnancy patients with gestational hypothyroidism can effectively improve their thyroid hormone levels and coagulation function, but treatment in early pregnancy is beneficial to reduce the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes such as fetal growth restriction and alleviate the impact of the disease on the neuropsychological development of offspring.

Objective:To analyze the predictive value of combined insulin autoantibody (IAA), islet cell antibody (ICA), and serum glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GADA) testing for pregnancy outcome in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) .Methods:One hundred and twenty patients with GDM were retrospectively selected for the study, and were divided into a poor pregnancy outcome group and a normal pregnancy outcome group based on the pregnancy outcome at follow-up to delivery, which were 37 and 83 cases, respectively. The occurrence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the study population was counted, and univariate and multivariate analyses of adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM were performed.Results:Adverse pregnancy outcomes were seen in 37 of the 120 study subjects, including 12, 13 and 9 cases of macrosomia, caesarean section and neonatal hypoglycaemia, respectively, and 1 case of premature rupture of the foetal hairs, placenta previa and neonatal asphyxia. The percentage of IAA, ICA, and GADA positivity was higher in the adverse pregnancy outcome group than in the normal pregnancy outcome group ( P<0.05). Multifactorial regression analysis showed that IAA ( OR=3.180, 95% CI 1.394-7.258), ICA ( OR=3.459, 95% CI 1.592-7.517), and GADA ( OR=3.219, 95% CI 1.508-6.872) positivity were independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM ( P<0.05). The AUC values for the combined IAA, ICA, and GADA for the detection of adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM were higher than those for IAA, ICA, and GADA alone ( Z=2.607, 2.600, and 2.527, P<0.05) . Conclusion:Positive IAA, ICA, and GADA are risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with GDM, and combined testing has a higher predictive value.
9.Correlation Between Peripheral Blood Inflammatory Markers and 18F-FDG PET/CT Metabolic Parameters in Tumors
Cancer Research on Prevention and Treatment 2024;51(6):484-487
Inflammatory markers in peripheral blood,such as neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-lymphocyte ratio,can reflect the reactive hyperplasia of inflammatory cells in tumors.The metabolic parameters of 18F-FDG PET/CT are also correlated with the reactive hyperplasia of inflammatory cells in tumors.However,only a few reports exist on the relationship between tumor metabolic parameters and peripheral blood inflammatory markers.Therefore,this review starts from three aspects:tumor peripheral blood inflammatory markers,inflammatory cell reactive hyperplasia in tumors,and 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters.The correlation between 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters and peripheral blood inflammatory markers is reviewed.
