AI Article Synopsis
- The study involved 20 pregnant women between 38 and 40 weeks, dividing them into two groups: 10 experienced insulin-induced hypoglycemia and 10 underwent hyperglycemia.
- Blood samples for glucose and SP1 were collected at various intervals (15 min to 48 hours) after the trials began.
- The results showed that SP1 levels in the serum related to carbohydrate metabolism, with higher levels observed in hypoglycemic cases at 24 hours, while hyperglycemic cases showed increased SP1 levels at different time points post-glucose infusion.
Article Abstract
The authors carried out studies on 20 women with normal pregnancy between 38 and 40 weeks gestation. Hypoglycemia, induced by insulin, was provoked in 10 of them, but hyperglycemia--in the other 10 women. Maternal blood samples for glucose and SP1 were taken on 15,30 and 60 min as well as on 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after the onset of the trial. It was established that hypoglycemia, induced by insulin, the mean values of SP1 in the maternal serum on 24th hour were considerably higher, but in the induced hyperglycemia the values of SP1 were higher on the 24th h than on 60 respectively 120 min after the beginning of glucose infusion. The authors found that between serum concentration of SP1 and carbohydrate metabolism of the mother existed interrelationship.

Background: Group B streptococcus (GBS) causes neonatal invasive disease, mainly sepsis and meningitis. Understanding the clinical characteristics, laboratory tests, and antibiotic resistance patterns of GBS invasive infections provides reliable epidemiological data for preventing and treating GBS infections.
Methods: Clinical characteristics and laboratory test results from 86 patients with neonatal invasive disease (45 cases of early-onset disease [EOD] and 41 cases of late-onset disease [LOD]) recruited from Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital between January 2012 and December 2021 were analyzed.

Background: Suboptimal cardiovascular health (CVH) in pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and offspring outcomes. To guide public health efforts to reduce disparities in maternal CVH, we determined the contribution of individual- and neighborhood-level factors to racial and ethnic differences in early pregnancy CVH.
Methods: We included nulliparous individuals with singleton pregnancies who self-identified as Hispanic, non-Hispanic Black (NHB), or non-Hispanic White (NHW) and participated in the nuMoM2b cohort study (Nulliparous Pregnancy Outcomes Study: Monitoring Mothers-to-Be).

Introduction: Pre-eclampsia is a pregnancy-related complication estimated to affect up to 8% of pregnancies worldwide. It is associated with an increased risk of postpartum sustained hypertension, coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease and cardiovascular-related mortality. Nevertheless, these associations have seldom been addressed in younger women from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).

Background: Our understanding of the global burden distribution of inflammatory cardiomyopathy and myocarditis is very limited.
Objective: To comprehensively assess the global burden distribution and attributable risk factors of inflammatory cardiomyopathy and myocarditis from 1990 to 2019.
Methods: We extracted the data on death, disability-adjusted life years (DALY), and age-standardized rate (ASR) of inflammatory cardiomyopathy and myocarditis from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study, including the comprehensive data and the data classified by age/sex.
