Complications of pregnancy in morbidly obese patients: What is the impact of gestational diabetes mellitus?

Objectives: The synergistic role of severe obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on pregnancy complications has been poorly studied. We aim to analyze the impact of GDM on pregnancy complications in women with class III obesity.

Material And Methods: we performed a retrospective monocentric study including women with a pregestational BMI≥40kg/m2 with a singleton pregnancy from January 1996 to December 2014.

Reporting adverse events in cancer surgery randomized trials: A systematic review of published trials in oesophago-gastric and gynecological cancer patients.

Background: Few reports describe how adverse events (AEs) are reported in cancer surgery trials.

Materials And Methods: We systematically reviewed 179 consecutive study reports issued between January 1, 1990 and November 15, 2014, which investigated surgery in oesophago-gastric (OG) or gynecologic (GY) cancer patients. Based on the reviewed reports, we assessed how AEs were reported according to CONSORT statement.
