Raccomandazioni per l\u2019esecuzione della Curva Standard da Carico Orale di Glucosio (OGTT) per la diagnosi di Diabete Mellito
The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is a fractional method which measures the body's ability to metabolize glucose. Despite its large-scale use, the OGTT is still not appropriately performed in most of the Italian laboratories, as proven by our previous recent survey. In particular, we have provided evidence for the variability for execution of the OGTT in Italian laboratories indicating a poor tendency to standardise the procedures and the methodologies. These findings have been a stimulus to promote an effective Nationwide educational campaign, in order to standardise the procedures for the diagnosis of altered glucose metabolism and diabetes. The present document reports therefore the recommendations concerning the OGTT performed for the classification of diabetes. These recommendations do not apply to the execution of the OGTT during pregnancy for diagnosing gestational diabetes mellitus
Экстрапульмональные состояния, сопутствующие бронхолегочной дисплазии, у детей первых 3 лет жизни: результаты ретроспективного одномоментного исследования
Background: There are few data on co-occurring with bronchopulmonary dysplasia diseases but there is no single point of view on their mutual effect.Objective: Our aim was to learn the structure and frequency of extrapulmonary disease, concomitant of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, in children aged up to 3 years.Methods. A retrospective analysis of histories of 93 children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia with an analysis of the consequences of perinatal pathology structure was carried out.Results. On average, each patient with bronchopulmonary dysplasia accounted for 5 comorbidities. The most common (89; 96%) were perinatal lesions of the nervous system and their consequences. In children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia at the age of 3 years there was a relatively low incidence of hydrocephalus and, on the contrary, high — of infantile cerebral palsy. Violations of the organs of vision were found in 58 (62%) children, malnutrition and other violations of physical development — in 58 (62%) and 27 (29%), respectively, and the cardiovascular system pathology — in 59 (63%).Conclusion. The most commonly, extrapulmonary pathology, co-occuring with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, includes neurological deficit with psychomotor retardation, violations of organs of vision, pathology of the cardiovascular system, malnutrition/delay in physical development.Имеются немногочисленные сведения о коморбидных бронхолегочной дисплазии заболеваниях. Единая точка зрения на их взаимное влияние отсутствует.Цель исследования: изучить структуру и частоту встречаемости экстрапульмональной патологии, сопутствующей бронхолегочной дисплазии, у детей в возрасте до 3 лет.Методы. Проведен ретроспективный анализ историй болезни 93 детей с бронхолегочной дисплазией с анализом структуры последствий перинатальной патологии.Результаты. В среднем на каждого пациента с бронхолегочной дисплазией приходилось по 5 сопутствующих заболеваний. Наиболее часто (у 89; 96%) встречались перинатальные поражения нервной системы и их последствия. У детей с бронхолегочной дисплазией в возрасте 3 лет отмечена относительно низкая частота встречаемости гидроцефалии и, напротив, высокая — детского церебрального паралича. Нарушения со стороны органов зрения выявлены у 58 (62%) детей, пониженное питание и другие нарушения физического развития — у 58 (62%) и 27 (29%) соответственно, патология сердечно-сосудистой системы — у 59 (63%).Заключение. Наиболее часто экстрапульмональная патология, сопутствующая бронхолегочной дисплазии, включает неврологический дефицит c задержкой психомоторного развития, поражение органов зрения, патологию со стороны сердечно-сосудистой системы, пониженное питание/задержку физического развития
