TL;DR: A comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies in which women who had developed type 2 diabetes after gestational diabetes were followed up between Jan 1, 1960, and Jan 31, 2009 to assess the strength of association between these conditions and the effect of factors that might modify the risk.

TL;DR: Frequency analysis suggests that, in obstetrics, the main cause of trouble is grade 3, in which the epiglottis can be seen, but not the cords, which is fairly rare, and can be helpful as part of the training before starting in the maternity department.
Abstract: Difficult intubation has been classified into four grades, according to the view obtainable at laryngoscopy. Frequency analysis suggests that, in obstetrics, the main cause of trouble is grade 3, in which the epiglottis can be seen, but not the cords. This group is fairly rare so that a proportion of anaesthetists will not meet the problem in their first few years and may thus be unprepared for it in obstetrics. However the problem can be simulated in routine anaesthesia, so that a drill for managing it can be practised. Laryngoscopy is carried out as usual, then the blade is lowered so that the epiglottis descends and hides the cords. Intubation has to be done blind, using the Macintosh method. This can be helpful as part of the training before starting in the maternity department, supplementing the Aberdeen drill.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The Northwick Park Heart Study has investigated the thrombotic component of ischaemic heart disease by the inclusion of measures of haemostatic function, finding that the biochemical disturbance leading to IHD may lie at least as much in the coagulation system as in the metabolism of cholesterol.
