Common clinical manifestations of maternal diabetes in newborn infants: implications for the practicing pediatrician.

Even though perinatal mortality of infants of diabetic mothers has decreased remarkably in recent years and now approaches that of the general population, these infants still face a multitude of potential complications and the propensity for increased morbidity, both in utero and postnatally. Many of these complications are clearly related to the metabolic status of the diabetic mother. Increasing awareness among insulin-dependent diabetic patients and health providers of the need for glycemic control and the ever-growing understanding of the peculiarities of diabetic pregnancies eventually should combine to provide the best possible outcome for these infants.

The pathogenesis of intestinal atresia.

The records of 28 patients with duodenal and 31 with jejunoileal intestinal atresia or stenosis were studied. Vomiting and abdominal distention were the most prominent symptoms; an unusual colon may be present in jejunal as well as ileal obstruction and is not pathognomonic for ileal obstruction. Intestinal atresia is associated with a high incidence of preterm babies but with a low incidence of intrauterine growth retardation. Fifty-three infants were operated upon; the overall survival rate was 79 per cent. The high percentage of mortality in duodenal obstruction is due to associated malformations. Theories of the pathogenesis of intestinal atresia do not seem to fit current clinical and experimental evidence in all patients. Possibly, different factors play a role in separate situations.

Frequency of reported dental visits and professional fluoride applications in a cohort of children followed from birth to age 3 years.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to report the prevalence of having a dental visit and/or a topical fluoride treatment at the dental visit from birth to age 36 months from an observational, longitudinal study of a cohort of children followed since birth. METHODS: Multiple questionnaires were sent to the families of children enrolled in a study of fluoride ingestion to ask parents if their child had had a dental (or dental hygiene) appointment and/or a fluoride treatment during the time interval since the previous mailed survey. Data were analyzed to determine the percentages of children who had at least one dental visit or at least one fluoride treatment by one, two or three years of age. RESULTS: Three hundred and forty parents completed all eleven questionnaires during the 36-month study period. Of these, 2% reported having taken their child for a dental visit by one year of age, 11% by two years of age and 31% by three years of age. Of those with a visit by three years of age, 19% received at least one fluoride treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Despite recommendations for early dental visits, only 31% of the children in this cohort had been seen by a dentist by the time they reached their third birthday and 19% of these had received a professional fluoride treatment.

Interval delivery and aggressive tocolysis in high-order multiple gestation. A report of three cases.

BACKGROUND: High-order multiple pregnancy (four and above) should be avoided if at all possible. The major fetal risk of high-order multiple gestation is that of extreme prematurity. Interval delivery has been used with twin and triplet pregnancies. CASES: An octuplet, sextuplet and quadruplet pregnancies were managed with interval delivery. The interval from delivery of the first infant to the remainder of pregnancy was 12 days for the octuplet pregnancy, 24 for the sextuplet pregnancy and 12 for the quadruplet pregnancy. CONCLUSION: In high-order multiple pregnancy, delayed interval delivery is strongly recommended, provided that there are no signs of chorioamnionitis, fetal distress or maternal compromise.
