GESTATIONAL DIABETES: PREVALENCE AND RISKS FOR THE MOTHER AND CHILD (REVIEW).

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is chronic hyperglycemia during gestation in women without previously diagnosed diabetes. This hyperglycemia is caused by impaired glucose tolerance due to pancreatic β-cell dysfunction in the setting of chronic insulin resistance. GDM has been found to affect approximately 4-16.

[Variability and inheritability of the "level of endogenous SH groups" trait in cell and clone populations of transplantable rat tumors].

Heterogeneity of cell and clone populations in various histogenesis of rat tumours has been studied by the content of the endogenic SH-groups. The distribution of the ovary tumour cells and their clone lines, as well as lung clones of the sublines of rat rhabdomyosarcoma RA-2 as to the content of endogenic SH-groups is of persistent and monopeak character. Modal classes are well expressed, in several clone lines variability of the cell composition is higher than in the initial population.
