Problems in screening for gestational diabetes mellitus by measurement of casual blood glucose levels at 24-28 gestational weeks.

Aims/introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the problems in screening for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) by casual blood glucose (CBG) measurements at 24-28 gestational weeks.

Materials And Methods: Overall, 763 pregnant women who underwent the 50-g glucose challenge test (GCT) at 24-28 gestational weeks were enrolled. The preload blood glucose (0-h BG) level of 50-g GCT was considered as CBG.

Advantages of sensor-augmented insulin pump therapy for pregnant women with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Aims/introduction: To evaluate the efficacy of sensor-augmented pump (SAP) for improving obstetric and neonatal outcomes among pregnant women with type 1 diabetes mellitus by comparing it with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion plus self-monitoring of blood glucose (continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion [CSII]/SMBG).

Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 40 cases of pregnancy complicated by type 1 diabetes mellitus treated with SAP (SAP group), and 29 cases of pregnancy complicated by type 1 diabetes mellitus treated with CSII/SMBG (CSII/SMBG group). The obstetric and neonatal outcomes were compared between the two groups.

A case of synchronous serous ovarian cancer and uterine serous endometrial intraepithelial carcinoma.

Background: Serous endometrial intraepithelial carcinoma (SEIC) is now considered to represent an early stage of uterine serous carcinoma (USC). It is an intraepithelial lesion but has been reported to cause extrauterine metastases. We report a case of SEIC with serous ovarian carcinoma and lymph node metastasis.

Laparoscopic detorsion of the ovary in ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome during the sixth week of gestation: A case report and review.

Introduction: Ovarian torsion in ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a relatively rare but serious complication in pregnant women. A delay in treatment increases the risk for functional loss of the ovary and early termination of pregnancy. In this report, we present the case of a 40-year-old female with OHSS who experienced ovarian torsion that was successfully treated with laparoscopic detorsion.
