Objectives: The study was undertaken to explore the effects of prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) and excess weight gain on maternal and neonatal outcomes different maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods: Obstetrics records of 496 singleton pregnant women delivered between 2007 and 2009 in IBN SINA Medical College Hospital were reviewed. On the basis of BMI on their first visit the patients were divided into 3 groups; Mat BMI Gr 1, normal (BMI 20–24.9 Kg/m<sup>2</sup>, n=366), Mat BMI Gr 2, overweight (BMI 25-29.9 Kg/m<sup>2</sup>, n=102), Mat BMI Gr 3, obese (BMI >30 Kg/m<sup>2</sup>, n=28). On the basis of gestational weight gain, the subject divided into 2 categories, Gets WtGain Gr A, gestational weight gain 8–15.9 Kg (n=315), Gest WtGain Gr B, gestational weight gain >16 Kg weight gain (n=181). Data were expressed as number (percentage). Proportion test was performed for comparison between two groups. P value <0.05 was taken as level of significance. Results: of the total 496 pregnant women 74.59% were between 19-34 years of age. Among all the women 64.11% had high school education of different grade. Of all the pregnancies 23.18% were nulliparous. Of the total 496 women 366 (79.79%) were normal weight, 102 (20.56%) overweight and 28 (5.64%) obese. Obese women group had significantly higher proportion of hypertensive cases compared to the normal weight (p<0.001) and overweight (p<0.01) group. Relatively higher proportion of macrosomia, birth trauma, shoulder dystocia and NICU admission among babies of obese women (p=ns). One hundred and eighty one (36.49%) of study subjects had gestational weight gain above the cut-off (>16 kg) value (p<0.001). Women with weight gain bout the cut-off level had relatively higher proportion of macrosomic babies (p=ns). Conclusions: The data reconfirmed that obesity is associated with hypertension. Significant proportion of women had weight gain more than cut-off value which needs to be addressed to ensure sound maternal and fetal wellbeing. However, a multicentre large scale study is warranted which may help the researchers to conclusively comment on the issue and thus plan future strategies for health care during pregnancy. Key words: Pre-pregnancy body mass index, gestational weight gain, obstetrics outcomes. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjms.v10i3.8364 BJMS 2011; 10(3): 195-199

The aim of this study was to evaluate steroid receptors’ status of tumor tissue in different molecular biological types of endometrial cancer (EC), subdivided according to the current classification, and their colonization by lymphocytic and macrophage cells, taking into account body mass index of the patients. Materials and methods: Material from treatment-naive patients with EC (total n = 229) was included; the number of sick persons varied depending on the method used. The average age of patients was close to 60 years, and about 90% of them were postmenopausal. It was possible to divide the results of the work into two main subgroups: a) depending on the molecular biological type of the tumor (determined on the basis of genetic and immunohistochemical analysis), and b) depending on the value of the body mass index (BMI). The latter approach was used in patients with EC type demonstrating a defective mismatch repair of the incorrectly paired nucleotides (MMR-D) and with a type without characteristic molecular profile signs (WCMP), but was not applied (due to the smaller number of patients) in EC types with a POLE gene mutation or with expression of the oncoprotein p53. According to the data obtained, when comparing various types of EC, the lowest values of Allred ER and PR scores were revealed for POLE-mutant and p53 types, while the “triple-negative” variant of the tumor (ER-, PR-, HER2/neu-) was most common in POLE-mutant (45.5% of cases) and WCMP (19.4%) types of EC. The p53+ type of EC is characterized by inclination to the higher expression of the macrophage marker CD68 and lymphocytic Foxp3, as well as mRNA of PD-1 and SALL4. In addition to the said above, for WCMP type of EC is peculiar, on the contrary, a decrease in the expression of lymphocytic markers CD8 (protein) and PD-L1 (mRNA). When assessing the role of BMI, its value of >30.0 (characteristic for obesity) was combined with an inclination to the increase of HER-2/neu expression in the case of MMR-D EC type and to the decrease of HER-2 /neu, FOXp3 and ER expression in WCMP type. Conclusions: The accumulated information (mainly describing here hormonal sensitivity of the tumor tissue and its lymphocytic-macrophage infiltration) additionally confirms our earlier expressed opinion that the differences between women with EC are determined by both the affiliation of the neoplasm to one or another molecular biological type (subdivided according to the contemporary classification), as well as by body mass value and (very likely) the associated hormonal and metabolic attributes.

AbstractObjectivesThe combination of sleep duration, television (TV) time and body mass index (BMI) may be related to the alteration of cardiometabolic risk. However, there are few studies that use these variables grouped, and showing the moderating role of age. This study aimed to verify if the combination of sleep duration, TV time and BMI is associated with cardiometabolic risk and the moderating role of age in this relationship in youth.MethodsCross-sectional study conducted with 1411 adolescents (611 male), aged 10–17 years. Sleep duration, TV time and BMI were assessed and grouped into eight categories. Cardiometabolic risk was assessed by a continuous metabolic risk score, including the following variables: low HDL-cholesterol, elevated triglycerides, dysglycemia, high systolic blood pressure, high waist circumference and low cardiorespiratory fitness. Generalized linear models were used to test moderation of age in the relationship between the eight categories of sleep duration/television time/BMI with cardiometabolic risk.ResultsCardiometabolic risk factor showed association with all overweight or obesity independent of sleep time and TV time. Age moderated the relationship between sleep duration/television time/BMI with cardiometabolic risk. This association was stronger in younger adolescents (11 and 13 years), indicating that individuals with inadequate sleep, prolonged TV time and overweight/obesity present higher cardiometabolic risk values when compared to 15-year-old adolescents.ConclusionOverweight/obesity, independently of sleep duration and TV time, is the main risk factor for cardiometabolic disorders in adolescence. When moderated by age, younger adolescents that presented the combination of risk factors had higher cardiometabolic risk.
