Objective:To assess the association of appendicular skeletal muscle mass(ASM) to fat mass(FM) ratio in early pregnancy with the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:A total of 468 pregnant women who visited the Nutritional Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital or Shunyi Maternal and Child Care Service Center in 2018 and 2019 were recruited. Detailed information and clinical data were collected. The body components were measured using the bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) method during early pregnancy (< 14 weeks) and the ASM to FM ratio was calculated. The patients were divided into the GDM group and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group according to the results of the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) performed during 24-28 weeks. Binary logistics regression was used to explore the correlation between the ASM/FM ratio and the risk of GDM. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve of subjects was used to evaluate the predictive value of ASM/FM ratio for GDM and the cut-off value was reported.Results:Compared to the NGT group, the ASM and FM in early pregnancy in the GDM group were significantly higher, while the ASM/FM ratio was significantly lower. A lower ASM/FM ratio in early pregnancy was one of the risk factors of developing GDM. The cut-off value of the ASM/FM ratio was 0.809. The area under the ROC curve for predicting GDM increased from 68.1% to 72.3% when ASM/FM ratio was incorporated, with a significant difference by Delong test ( P = 0.006). Conclusion:Inadequate muscle mass would increase the risk of GDM and the ASM/FM ratio could serve as a predictor of GDM.

Objective:To evaluate the association of maternal nutrition status in the first trimester with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and macrosomia.Methods:378 pregnant women who took prenatal care in Shunyi Women′s and Children′s Hospital of Beijing Children′s Hospital were enrolled in the study. Blood samples were collected at first prenatal visit (<12 gestation weeks) to measure the level of hemoglobin and iron status indexes including serum iron, ferritin, transferrin, total iron binding capacity, iron saturation, transferrin saturation. The incidence of GDM and macrosomia were collected and Logistic regression was used to evaluate the associations of maternal nutrients status in the first trimester with GDM and macrosomia.Results:The incidence rate of GDM was16.9%,the incidence of anemia and iron deficiency in the first trimester were2.4% and 2.5%, respectively. After adjustment for variables such as maternal age, pre-pregnancy BMI, family history of diabetes, and parity, Logistic regression showed that in the first trimester, iron saturation>50% ( OR=0.238, 95% CI 0.068-0.831), transferrin saturation>50% ( OR=0.08, 95% CI 0.010-0.677) were protective factors of GDM; iron saturation 25%-50% ( OR=0.361, 95% CI 0.143-0.908); transferrin saturation 25%-50% ( OR=0.383, 95% CI 0.165-0.891); ferritin>30 ng/ml ( OR=0.418, 95% CI0.186-0.939) were protective factors of macrosomia. Conclusion:Maternal iron status in the first trimester might be associated with GDM and macrosomia. Thus, maternal iron status assessment in the first trimester is necessary.

Objective To evaluate the method and clinical effect of subtalar joint distractor assisted open reduction and internal fixation of comminuted intra-articular calcaneal fracture.Methods Twenty-two patients with fresh closed calcaneal fracture treated with open reduction and internal fixation from May 2011 to July 2013 were included in the study.According to the modes of operation,the patients were randomly divided into two groups (n =11 in each):in group A patients underwent fracture reduction assisted by subtalar joint distractor and in group B patients underwent Steinmann pin traction and poking reduction.All were fixed using the lateral calcaneal plate.Operation time,B(o)hler angle,Gissanes angle,calcaneus height,incision healing time and complications of the two groups were investigated for evaluating the effect of operation.Clinical effect was evaluated using the American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score before the removal of internal fixation.Results Period of follow-up was (14.3±0.8)months (range,12 to 18 months).Two patients in group B had delayed wound healing,and were treated with regular wound care.At the final follow-up,no infection,nonunion,malunion and internal fixation failure were observed.B(o)hler angle,operation time and calcaneus height observed in group A were superior to those in group B (P <0.01).There was no significant difference in Gissanes angle between the two groups (P > 0.05).Compared to the preoperative data,B(o)hler angle,Gissanes angle and calcaneus height were significantly improved in both groups (P <0.01).AOFAS score was (83.6 ± 1.4) points in group A and (81.7 ± 1.5) points in group B.Conclusion Subtalar joint distractor assisted open reduction and internal fixation is effective to shorten operation time,improve fracture reduction,reduce wound complications and increase the operative effect for comminuted intraarticular calcaneal fracture.

Objective To study the changes of diamine oxidase (DAO)levels in neonates with hypoxic -is-chemic encephalopathy (HIE)treated with selective brain hypothermi,also to further evaluate Scores for Newborn Gastrointestinal Functior (SNGF).Methods 60 newborns with moderate and severe HIE who were in the NICU of our department from June 2013 to December 2014 were collected.The 60 newborns were randomly divided into hypo-thermia treatment group (HG)and conventional treatment group(CG).The serum was collected and ELISA method was used to test the consistency of DAO on admission and 7 days afterwards,respectively.Meanwhile,the SNGF level of the two groups at the two time points was compared.Results Neither the DAO and SNGF level of the two groups had statistical difference on admission(all P >0.05).Seven days later,both the DAO of the two groups and the SNGF decreased[(12.51 ±1.53)u/mL vs (7.88 ±1.87)u/mL,however,the variation of the hypothermia treatment group was apparently more significant than the change of the conventional treatment group(P =0.011).The SNGF scores of the two groups all decreased,while the hypothermia treatment group was significantly lower than the conventional treat-ment group,the difference were statistically significant (P =0.044,0.006,0.013).Besides,there was remarkably positive correlation between serum DAO level and SNGF (r1 =-0.825,r2 =-0.876,all P <0.05).Conclusion Hypothermia treatment could effectively reduce the injury of asphyxia neonatal gastrointestinal tract by inhibiting the level of DAO,thus improve the gastrointestinal function.
