Blood Sugery In Pregnancies

Might blood-sugar level at the high end of the normal range pose a risk to pregnant woman and their babies? A study followed through childbirth 23,316 women who’d had their blood sugar tested when they were about 28 weeks pregnant. All participants had blood-sugar levels below the threshold for diabetes. About 26% of the women with the highest level gave birth to abnormally large babies, compared with 5% of women with the lowest levels.

Also, the higher a woman’s blood-sugar level, the more likely she was to have a child with high insulin levels and low blood-sugar levels at birth, and greater the chance that she would deliver prematurely or have a Caesarean delivery.

Who may be affected? Pregnant women. In the US, about 5% of the pregnant women develop diabetes for the first during pregnancy.

Caveats: The study did not determine at what point pregnant women with bllod-sugar levels below diabetic should receive treatment. Analysis did not include data on weight gain and the women’s diets.

You can find this study in the May 8 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.

Annus Horriblis

Queen Elizabeth declared in 1 decade ago that she had an annus horribilis. I think I have no choice but to declare that 2008 is my annus horribilis, the year that everything that could go wrong, went wrong. I don't want to go on further as I'm usually an optimistic non-complainer but I am so upset because one of my most important piece of belonging was stolen from my house while I was working..and my house is in the hospital compound!

The loss of the item is incomparable to the amount of work I have stored in it. IMHO, intellectual property is much more costlier than a depreciated item. The most important lesson that I learnt is that we must always back-up all our data every single week.

Anyhow, this event only reminded me that people (security guards) who are supposed to do their job aren't performing their duties and that some burglars are so cruel because they take the only thing that is important to me as a working doctor who is serving the people.

Therefore, I'm pushed even further into my impending move out of Malaysia as I have lost all hope in the state of affairs in this country. Until I regain my hope and optimism, I think I'll be quite depressed for a while...

Chiling Out Alas

What's more relaxing than staring at crystal-clear flowing stream amidst soothing green tropical trees and pure, fresh air all filled without any pollutants from human?












Chilling out at home!! The last time I could truly chill out at home in KL is like 3 months ago. I miss my bedroom, computer, Internet and little bro so much and now I can finally see all of them J Hanging out at my favourite neighbourhood mall, KLCC and having drinks with my gal-pal while people-watching..these are just some of my typical weekend activity once back in the metropolis.

The good thing about home is the easy accessibility to LRT station, meaning I don’t have to drive everywhere in town. I’m someone who goes all out to avoid traffic jams and it always seem that the Friday jams in town are the worse. I wish that we have better mass transit system in KL but we have yet to see any start to contruction of the new lines. Sigh..

Of course, my short respite from a small town is usually for only 3 to 4 days but at least I’ve satisfied my cravings for city life for a while. So, I’m looking forward to my next break as I work hard and play even harder. Hasta-lavista….
