Objective: Hyperuricemia has been described commonly in preeclamptic pregnancies, often prece ding the diagnosis of preeclampsia and historically was used as a diagnostic marker of preeclampsia.The aim of this study was to determine the usefulness of gestation corrected hyperuricemia (GCH) to predict the recurrence of preeclampsia on subsequent pregnancy. Methods: The retrospective study of 64 women who had previous preeclampsia and checked serum uric acid was analyzed. GCH was defined as being one standard deviation above the gestation-specific mean. And we used uric acid z-scores ([serum uric acid value-gestation specific mean]/standard deviation of the population) to account for gestation-specific alterations in uric acid and tested this as a continuous variable. The relationship between GCH and recurrence of preeclampsia on subsequent pregnancy was analyzed. Obstetric outcomes were reviewed according to absence or presence of GCH. P<0.05 was considered as significant. Results: Of 64 women, seventeen had the development of recurrent preeclampsia (26.6%). The absence or presence of GCH was not associated with the recurrence of preeclampsia on subsequent pregnancy (P=0.267). And gestation-specific uric acid z-score as a continuous variable did not show any association with the prediction of preeclampsia on subsequent pregnancy (P=0.427). GCH was associated with the small for gestational age (P=0.010). Conclusion GCH does not predict the recurrence of preeclampsia on subsequent pregnancy.

Objective: Our goal was to review outcomes of patients with heterotopic pregnancies who under went surgical treatment. Methods: From January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2021, 27 women with heterotopic pregnancies who had undergone surgical treatment were enrolled. We investigated pregnancy outcomes based on clinical records and follow-up telephone interviews. Three of the 27 patients were excluded because we were unable to contact them. Results: Of the 24 patients included in the study, 17 underwent salpingectomies for tubal pregnan cies, 5 underwent wedge resections for cornual pregnancies, and 1 underwent a unilateral salpingooophorectomy for ovarian pregnancy. One patient with a suspected heterotopic cervical pregnancy had undergone extraction with forceps and curettage under abdominal ultrasound guidance. Three patients had spontaneous abortions after treatment for heterotopic pregnancies (2 tubal pregnancies, one cervical pregnancy). Twenty-one of 24 patients had heterotopic pregnancies that occurred after assisted reproductive technology. Three cases were heterotopic pregnancies that occurred without reproductive interventions. Among 24 patients who underwent surgical treatment, 18 patients (75.0%) had full-term deliveries. Conclusion There were no hospitalizations due to preterm labor, and 21 deliveries (87.5%) were either late preterm or full-term. There were no fetal abnormalities or maternal complications. Although the development of assisted reproductive technologies has increased the incidence of heterotopic pregnancy, the outcomes of heterotopic pregnancies are generally good.

Background/Aims: H2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) have been used to treat gastritis by inhibiting gastric acid. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are more potent acid suppressants than H2RA.However, the efficacy and safety of low-dose PPI for treating gastritis remain unclear. The aim was to investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose PPI for treating gastritis. Methods: A double-blind, noninferiority, multicenter, phase 3 clinical trial randomly assigned 476 patients with endoscopic erosive gastritis to a group using esomeprazole 10 mg (DW1903) daily and a group using famotidine 20 mg (DW1903R1) daily for 2 weeks. The full-analysis set included 319 patients (DW1903, n=159; DW1903R1, n=160) and the per-protocol set included 298 patients (DW1903, n=147; DW1903R1, n=151). The primary endpoint (erosion improvement rate) and secondary endpoint (erosion and edema cure rates, improvement rates of hemorrhage, erythema, and symptoms) were assessed after the treatment. Adverse events were compared. Results: According to the full-analysis set, the erosion improvement rates in the DW1903 and DW1903R1 groups were 59.8% and 58.8%, respectively. According to the per-protocol analysis, the erosion improvement rates in the DW1903 and DW1903R1 groups were 61.9% and 59.6%, respectively. Secondary endpoints were not significantly different between two groups except that the hemorrhagic improvement rate was higher in DW1903 with statistical tendency. The number of adverse events were not statistically different. Conclusions DW1903 of a low-dose PPI was not inferior to DW1903R1 of H2RA. Thus, lowdose PPI can be a novel option for treating gastritis (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05163756).
