DEFINITION of Preterm labor (PTL):
-It is defined as one where the labor starts before the 37th completed week (<259 days), counting from the first day of the last menstrual period.
-The lower limit of gestation is not uniformly defined; whereas in developed countries it has been brought down to 20 weeks, in developing countries it is 28 weeks.
-Preterm birth is the significant cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality.

(1) Regular uterine contractions with or without pain (at least one in every 10 minutes);
(2) Dilatation (> 2 cm) and effacement (80%) of the cervix;
(3) Length of the cervix (measured by TVS) < 2.5 cm and funneling of the internal os and
(4) Pelvic pressure, backache and/or vaginal discharge or bleeding.

WHO definition of Preterm Labor (PTL)
-Regular contractions associated with cervical changes ( <37complete ->20 weeks of pregnancy )
-Birth weight < 2500 g
•Threatened PTL: presence of uterine contractions in absence of cervical changes.
•Early PTL: is PTL occurring < 34 weeks gestation.
lt is the more serious type of PTL.
•Late PTL: is PTL occurring > 34 but < 37 weeks.
It carries less foetal risks than early PTL.

Remember:
-Fetal anomalies are however not increased in case of GDM, Why?
-This is due to the absence of metabolic disturbance during organogenesis, because GDM occurs later during second or third trimester.

Remember:
-Pregnancy is a state of chronic low grade inflammation.
-This is associated with increased circulating levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6).
-Both these factors enhance insulin resistance.
-The defect lies both in insulin secretion and action.
-The ultimate effect is the hyperglycemia.
-Nearly 50% of women with GDM will become overt diabetes (type-2) over a period of 5 to 20 years.

OVERT DIABETES in Pregnancy:
-A patient with symptoms of diabetes mellitus (polyuria, polydipsia, weight loss) and random plasma glucose level of 200 mg/dL or more is considered overt diabetic.
-The condition may be pre-existing or detected for the first time during present pregnancy.
-According to American Diabetic Association diagnosis is positive if:
(a) The fast ing plasma glucose exceeds 126 mg/dL,
(b) the 2 hours post glucose (75 g) value exceeds 200 mg/dL and

1)Definition
-The term precocious puberty is reserved for girls who exhibit any secondary sex characteristics before the age of 8 (before age 7 in whites)
or
-menstruate before the age of 10.
-Precocious puberty may be:
Isosexual where the features are due to excess production of estrogen.
Heterosexual where features are due to excess production of androgen (from ovarian and adrenal neoplasm).
-Precocious puberty is more common in girls (20 times) than boys.
