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.

Objective: The study aimed to investigate the impact of varying thyroid function statuses on clinical and laboratory indicators in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 258 patients with SLE, who were stratified according to thyroid function, renal involvement, and disease activity. The predictive value of thyroid hormones was evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for postmenopausal syndrome (PMS) carries high risks of undesirable side effects. This study explores irisin as a potential alternative to HRT and investigates the underlying mechanisms. Ovariectomized (OVX) female mice was used as an animal model.

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.
