Outcome of Pregnancy in an Oxford-Cardiff Cohort of Women with Previous Bacteriuria

To investigate the influence of asymptomatic bacteriuria inchildhood on subsequent pregnancy, we reviewed the outcome of139 pregnancies in 88 women who were first identified duringa programme of screening schoolgirls for asymptomatic bacteriuriacarried out between 1970–1972 [1]. Data were analysedfor the following groups: 50 pregnancies in 28 women with knownrenal scars (group 1); 16 pregnancies in 14 women with normalkidneys and reflux (group 2); 73 pregnancies in 46 women withnormal urinary tracts (group 3); 139 healthy controls. Women in group 1 had a 3.3-fold increased relative risk of hypertension(p < 0.01) and a 7.6-fold increased risk of pre-eclampsia(p< 0.05) compared to controls, and a higher rate of obstetricinterventions, including emergency caesarean section. Womenin groups 2 and 3 appeared to carry a slightly increased riskof hypertension during the last trimester (RR = 1.8) but therewere no significant differences in this or the incidence ofpre-eclampsia or mode of delivery. Bacteriuria was more prevalentin all index groups compared to controls (37 per cent vs. 8per cent, p < 0.01) and included four cases of acute pyelonephritisin the study group. Fetal outcome was satisfactory in all cases.These results suggest that women with renal scars are at riskof hypertension and pre-eclampsia during pregnancy but thatmodern obstetric care minimizes these risks.     

Hereditary coproporphyria: unusual nervous system involvement in two cases

Summary Two cases of hereditary coproporphyria showed unusual nervous system involvement, one epilepsy with onset in childhood, and the other chronic central and peripheral nervous system damage. The literature is briefly discussed.

Zusammenfassung Es wird über zwei Fälle von Hereditärer Koproporphyrie berichtet, bei denen ungewöhnliche Erscheinungen von Nervensystemstörungen auftreten (d. h.: eine scheinbar idiopathische Epilepsie mit Beginn im Kindesalter bei dem ersten Patienten; eine chronisch-zentrale sowie periphere Nervensystembeschädigung bei dem zweiten). Diese Beobachtungen werden anhand der Literatur kurz diskutiert.
