[Significance of urinary tract infections in gynecologic diseases and in pregnancy].

In search of urinary tract infections 3185 gynaecological patients and 1600 pregnant women were examined by means of TTC-Test. 12.8% of the gynaecological patients and 12% of the pregnant women showed bacteruria. A special disposition to urinary tract infection was found by patients suffering from descensus, fistula of urogenital system and by gravid women with toxaemea of pregnancy and diabetes mellitus. Infection through E. coli was found to be dominating and the germs showed a relatively high sensitivity against Chloramphenicol and Nifurantin now as before. Problems of diagnosis and therapy are discussed. The necessity of most effective screening methods, of early diagnosis and of interdisciplinary team-work is pointed out.

Incidence and forms of EPH gestosis in twin pregnancy.

An increased incidence of EPH gestosis in twin pregnancies is frequently reported. During the past 12 years, 188 women gave birth to twins in our hospital. For these mothers, the incidence of EPH gestosis on admission was 42.5%, in contrast to 31.4% for a control group matched for age, parity and nationality. EPH gestosis occurring in twin pregnancies was more severe than that in single pregnancies.

Midtrimester preeclamptic toxemia in triploid pregnancies.

Nineteen advanced triploid pregnancies reported in the literature are reviewed. In 8 of 14 pregnancies for which reliable data were available, severe preeclamptic toxemia (EPH gestosis) developed, most often from the 16th to the 24th week of gestation. In all the toxemic cases, the placenta was large for the stage of pregnancy, the placental coefficient was high (mean 0.83) and extensive areas of molar degeneration were present. Advanced triploid pregnancy is considered a further example of hyperplacentosis causing preeclamptic toxemia. The study of toxemic and nontoxemic advanced triploid pregnancies supports the assumption that hyperplacentosis, rather than being related to excessive placental size, is the expression of trophoblastic hyperactivity.

EPH gestosis in Glasgow, 1970.

Perinatal deaths due to EPH gestosis which occurred in Glasgow during 1970 were studied. There was a high frequency of perinatal deaths among babies born to primigravidae below the age of 20 years and to mothers with proteinuria. The majority of the deaths occurred in babies weighing less than or equal to 2,500 g. It is suggested that some of the deaths were avoidable and that a further reduction in perinatal mortality can still be achieved.

[The importance of the risk factor "obesity" during gravidy (author's transl)].

Between 1. 6. 1972 and 31. 12. 1974 obese gravidae with a body weight of 90 kg or more were observed (7,6% of all patients in this period). This 315 patients were compared with a group of 315 patients with normal body weight chosen by random. The results of both groups were compared and evaluated by statistic (t-test, x2-test). A significant higher rate of Diabetes, latent Diabetes, EPH-Gestosis and cases of over-term deliveries were found in the group of obese patients.

Myasthenia gravis and preeclampsia.

Myasthenia gravis in pregnancy is rare, and its occurence in conjunction with preeclampsia has not been previously described. A case report of preeclampsia in a myasthenic patient is described with recommendations for management. The authors conclude that magnesium is a contraindicated pharmacologic agent in a myasthenic patient.

Consumptive coagulopathy in severe preeclampsia.

Our experience with consumptive coagulopathy associated with preeclampsia at North Carolina Baptist Hospital is presented. All cases of recognized consumptive coagulopathy on the obstetric service from 1969 to 1975 are reviewed and the associated obstetric entities given. Two cases of consumptive coagulopathy complicating severe preeclampsia are presented. Consumptive coagulopathy occurred in 9.1% of eclamptic patients and in 2.6% of severe preeclamptic patients. No previous incidence figures were found in the literature.

[Cytophotometric analysis of proteins in human embryo hypophyseal cells in normal and pathologic pregnancies].

As it is known, formation of the adenohypophysis in the human fetus takes place at early stages of ontogenesis. The objective of the present work was to find out whether the adenohypophysis, already at these early stages of development, was capable to response to changes in the environment, in this case to those in the mother's organism. Two groups of the human adenohypophyses obtained as a result of artificial abortion were studied: 1) from fetuses which developed under normal pregnancy; 2) from fetuses which developed under pathological pregnancy (toxemia in the first half of pregnancy). The method of quantitative cytospectrophotometric analysis of simple and conjugated proteins of a various nature were used. The data obtained indicated to early appearance of simple and conjugated proteins in the cells of the anterior lobe of the hypophysis of the human fetus and to their definite dynamics depending upon the course of pregnancy. It was established that at early stages of ontogenesis the adenohypophysis of the human fetus produces a certain reaction to changes in the environment, in particular, to changes occurring in the mother's organism.

[Comparative examinations of high-molecular maternal serum protein bodies during pregnancy--a contribution to biochemical pregnancy control (author's transl)].

The maternal Serum concentrations of beta 1 SP 1, IgM and alpha 2-macroglobulin were determined in relation to the gestation age, using the simple radial immunodiffusion method in 102 non-pathologic pregnancies and 35 pregnancies involving risk factors. To assess the clinical relevance of these determinations, we examined to what extent the changes in concentration of beta 1 SP 1 IgM and alpha 2-macroglobulin would permit a prognostically useful conclusion on the placenta function and foetal condition. All patients with lowered beta 1 SP 1-serum concentrations were examined for their antepartua CTG-evaluation, as well as the type of termination of parturition. The normal distribution for beta 1 SP 1 showed a continuous rise in serum concentration up to the 37th pregnancy week. During the last 3 weeks, beta 1 SP 1 remained almost constant. For the cases with EPH-gestosis and placenta insufficiency, a beta 1 SP 1-concentration below the normal distribution level was found in the large majority of all cases. In diabetes mellitus during gravidity, twin gravidity and MHN, the determination of beta 1 SP 1 is not of any decisive prognostic significance. The maternal serum levels of IgM showed no significant differences when comparing normal pregnancy and risk pregnancy. The serum concentration of alpha 2-macroglobulin increased in both groups of patients with increasing gestation age. Of the three examined protein bodies, we consider beta 1 SP 1 to be a good, additional parameter for the assessment of the trophoblast function.
