Background: GDM is always treated as a homogenous disease ignoring the different metabolic characteristics in oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). We assessed the effect of GDM on macrosomia based on the different characteristics of OGTT.

Methods: We retrospectively divided 998 GDM pregnant women into 7 groups, Group A1: abnormal OGTT; Group A2: abnormal OGTT; Group A3: abnormal OGTT; Group B1: abnormal OGTT; Group B2: abnormal OGTT; Group B3: abnormal OGTT; Group C: abnormal OGTT.

Results: The incidence of macrosomia in group C (21.92%) was higher than other groups. The OR of OGTT was significant (OGTT: OR = 1.577, 95% CI: 0.791, 3.145; OGTT: OR = 1.151, 95% CI: 0.572, 2.313; OGTT: OR = 1.346, 95% CI: 0.584, 3.101; OGTT: OR = 1.327, 95% CI: 0.517, 3.409; OGTT: OR = 0.771, 95% CI: 0.256, 2.322; OGTT: OR = 4.164, 95% CI: 2.095, 8.278) when comparing with OGTT. Subgroup analysis showed abnormal OGTT might contribute more to macrosomia in pre-pregnancy BMI ≥ 24 kg/m than those with BMI < 24 kg/m.

Conclusion: The effect of abnormal OGTT on macrosomia was significantly greater than other OGTT characteristics, especially for those with pre-pregnancy BMI ≥ 24 kg/m. Individualized management of GDM based on OGTT characteristics and pre-pregnancy BMI might be needed.

Sleep and breathing in children with Joubert syndrome and a review of other rare congenital hindbrain malformations.

Ther Adv Respir Dis

January 2025

Division of Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle Children's Hospital, 4800 Sand Point Way NE, OC 7.730, Seattle, WA 98105, USA.

Background: Joubert syndrome (JS) is an autosomal recessive disorder with a distinctive mid-hindbrain malformation known as the "molar tooth sign" which involves the breathing control center and its connections with other structures. Literature has reported significant respiratory abnormalities which included hyperpnea interspersed with apneic episodes during wakefulness. Larger-scale studies looking at polysomnographic findings or subjective reports of sleep problems in this population have not yet been published.

Background: Epileptiform activity, including status epilepticus (SE), occurs in up to one-third of comatose survivors of cardiac arrest and may predict poor outcome. The relationship between SE and hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI) is not established.

Methods: This is a single-center retrospective study on consecutive patients with post-anoxic super-refractory SE.
