Genettreating congenital adrenal hyperplasia.ic alterations associated with rare endocrine diseases disrupt the body's normal chemical communication system. Faulty genes can affect any part of the hormone pathway by altering the way the body recognises a hormone, or how a hormone acts on a target organ.

Purpose Of Review: The concept of using pulse oximetry as a screening method to detect undiagnosed critical congenital heart defects (CCHD) in asymptomatic newborns was first explored over 10 years ago. A number of studies were subsequently reported, which initially involved relatively small numbers of patients, low prevalence of CCHD and heterogeneous methodology. As a consequence, the majority of clinicians felt the case for routine pulse oximetry screening had not been proven.

This chapter concerning maternal mortality due to anaesthesia, reprinted with permission from Saving Mothers' Lives, is the 18th in a series of reports within the Confidential Enquiries into Maternal and Child Health (CEMACH) in the UK. In the years 2003-05 there were six women who died from problems directly related to anaesthesia, which is the same as the 2000-02 triennium. Obesity was a factor in four of these women who died.

A hierarchy of effective teaching and learning to acquire competence in evidenced-based medicine.

BMC Med Educ

December 2006

Division of Reproductive and Child Health, University of Birmingham, and Birmingham Women's Hospital, UK.

Background: A variety of methods exists for teaching and learning evidence-based medicine (EBM). However, there is much debate about the effectiveness of various EBM teaching and learning activities, resulting in a lack of consensus as to what methods constitute the best educational practice. There is a need for a clear hierarchy of educational activities to effectively impart and acquire competence in EBM skills.

Aim: Twelve years' outcome analysis of pregnancies in women with Type 2 diabetes in a multiethnic geographically defined area.

Methods: Information about 182 women delivered between 1990 and 2002 was ascertained from a regional computerized database. The main outcome measures were rates of miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal/postnatal deaths, congenital malformations, birth weight, mode of delivery, and neonatal unit care as well as maternal morbidities of polyhydramnios, postpartum haemorrhage, pregnancy-induced hypertension/pre-eclampsia.

Volume expansion is used commonly in preterm infants to treat presumed hypovolaemia. However, the amount that should be given is uncertain. We present data that were obtained from anonymised regional case notes of Project 27/28, a national case-controlled study run by the Confidential Enquiry into Stillbirths and Deaths in Infancy.

Cytological prediction of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3: does size of the lesion matter?

J Low Genit Tract Dis

January 1998

*Academic Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, City Hospital NHS Trust †CRC Institute for Cancer Studies, Medical School, University of Birmingham ‡and Birmingham Women's Hospital, Edgbaston, Birmingham, UK.

Objective: Our objective was to test the hypothesis that accurate cytological prediction of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) is related to the size of the atypical transformation zone.

Patients And Methods: Data on 340 women in whom CIN3 was diagnosed after large-loop excision of the transformation zone were recorded prospectively on a computerized database. These data were studied with regard to such variables as lesion size, age, parity, contraception use, and smoking status.
