RESUMO
The aim of the study was to estimate which factors contribute to high frequency of RDS in our newborns of the diabetic mothers treated with intensive insulin therapy. The study material consisted of 574 newborns (394 from GDM and 180 from IDDM mothers) born in the years 1987-1998. In the analysed group there were compared: frequency of occurrence of RDS, severity of RDS as well as factors which can contribute to occurrence of RDS. That was found that, in the PGDM group prematurity, low Apgar score and delivery by caesarean section and in the GDM group--prematurity, low Apgar score and male sex are factors contributed the most to occurrence of RDS. That was also found that the risk of occurrence of RDS in the PGDM group was 5 to (transient tachypnoe) to 3 times (RDS) greater than in the GDM group. We conclude that PGDM and prematurity are factors the most connected with the occurrence of RDS in newborns born to diabetic mothers.

In the study there was estimated maternal (Fm) and cord blood (Fc) fructosamine levels in 151 diabetic (58 PGDM and 93 GDM) and 100 control subjects on the day of delivery. It was found that Fm and Fc levels in PGDM and GDM groups were significantly higher than in the control group. It was also found the significantly positive correlation between Fm and Fc levels in all study groups. It leads to the conclusion that pregnant diabetic women and their fetuses were hyperglycemic during the last 2 weeks of pregnancy. Our results indicate that on the basis of maternal fructosamine levels it is possible to apply on indirect estimation of metabolic status of the fetus.

Out of 1000 consecutive fiber-sigmoidoscopic examinations performed using the CF-P 10 S flexible recto-sigmoidoscope, 350 examinations carried out in patients with overt rectal bleeding were subjected to analysis. Among other, 132 cases of haemorrhoids, 47 cases of proctitis, 64 cases of ulcerative colitis, 39 cases of cancer and 37 cases of adenomatous polyps were diagnosed. Only in nearly 3% of cases the examination failed to provide diagnostic conclusions. In 13.4% of cases fiber-sigmoidoscopy failed to show any lesion which led to further diagnostic management (coloscopy and/or large intestine X-ray examination). The usefulness is stressed of fiber-sigmoidoscopy in the diagnosis of bleeding from the lower part of the digestive tract as well as the need for its possibly early performance as the first examination in each case of rectal bleeding.

Among 1000 successive endoscopic examinations carried out in the first 6 months of 1990 in a laboratory of endoscopy 443 cases (44.3%) of sliding hiatus hernia were analysed. The examination was carried out with an Olympus GIF-Q10 fibroscope without pharmacological premedication. The diagnosis was based on the criteria described by Dagradi and Trujillo at all. In 296 cases sliding hiatus hernia was the only pathological abnormality in the endoscopic examination. In 85 cases it was associated with mucosa inflammation in the oesophagus, and in 1 case with carcinoma of the oesophagus. No correlation was found between frequency of endoscopic finding of hiatus hernia and sex and age. The analysis showed that in 110 out of 172 cases earlier routine radiological examination (63.9%) failed to demonstrate the hernia, whose direct signs were found in endoscopic examination. In no case radiological findings suggested the presence of oesophageal changes. It seems that endoscopic diagnostic of sliding hiatus hernia may contribute to explanation of the cause of "non-characteristic" gastric symptoms which in over half the cases were the cause of referral of the patients to this examination.
