关于妇产科综合征的理解和应用

综合征(syndrome)来源于希腊语syn("一起"、"共同"之意)和drómos(事件),并起意为"同时发生或同时发生的事件"(concurrence).其实,这也是医学词汇里最古老的名词之一,可以追溯到希腊的波克拉底和盖伦时代,就已被用于描述同时发生的一组症状[1].     

Comparison of indications of pregnancy termination and prognosis of mothers and neonates in early- and late-onset preeclampsia

Objective: To compare the indications of pregnancy termination and prognosis between early-onset preeclampsia (EOP) and late-onset preeclampsia (LOP). Methods: In total, 100 patients diagnosed early-onset preeclampsia in our hospital from January 1, 2012, to June 30, 2014, were recruited for this retrospective cohort study. At the same time, we randomly chose another 100 late-onset preeclampsia as the contrast group. Criterion distinguishing early versus late was set at week 34 of gestation. Indications for pregnancy termination and prognosis of mothers and neonates were compared between the groups. Results: Significant differences were observed between the groups regarding indications for terminating pregnancy. The EOP indications to terminate the pregnancy were mainly fetal-related, while LOP were mainly maternal-related. Postpartum neonatal morbidity and mortality were significantly higher, mean gestational age onset and delivery were significantly earlier, latent period for delivery and postpartum hospitalization time were significantly longer, admission 24 h proteinuria was significantly higher in EOP than in LOP group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: EOP is a distinct and more severe clinical entity with earlier gestational age onset and delivery. EOP might be a fetal-related disease complicated by severe placental and perinatal injuries; LOP might be a maternal-related derived disease condition.     

妇产科学的解剖绘图

这也许是尚无人涉猎的主题,但却是与我们日常的医疗工作密不可分的问题.诊断与治疗离不开解剖学的观念和知识,可是我们却常常忽略表达解剖的绘图以及它的作用和技法.学习、应用解剖绘图是一种科学与艺术结合的体验和实践.     

Diagnosis and management of preeclampsia and eclampsia

Hypertensive disease occurs in approximately 12-22% of pregnancies, and it is directly responsible for 17.6% of maternal deaths in the United States (1,2). However, there is confusion about the terminology and classification of these disorders. This bulletin will provide guidelines for the diagnosis and management of hypertensive disorders unique to pregnancy (ie, preeclampsia and eclampsia), as well as the various associated complications. Chronic hypertension has been discussed elsewhere (3).     

Diagnosis and management of Candida of the nipple and breast

Diagnosis and treatment of ductal and/or nipple candidiasis in breastfeeding women is complicated by the variety of symptoms women experience. The differential diagnosis includes candidiasis of the nipple, candidiasis of the breast, bacterial infection of either nipple or breast, and other less common problems such as Raynaud's syndrome. Diagnosis and treatment are based on history, physical examination, and presenting symptomatology because cultures of breast milk are often inconclusive. Differential diagnoses and treatment options are reviewed.
