Perinatal outcome and the factors affecting it were studied in 140 pregnant women with hypertension. Perinatal mortality rate (PNM) was 140/1000 and the stillbirth rate was 8.7%. In severe hypertension PNM was 52.3% and all perinatal deaths were 8.7%, when the serum uric acid level were more than 4.5 mg%.

A controlled prospective study was conducted on 300 postmenopausal women attending the Kamla Nehru Hospital from November, 1990 to August, 1992. The incidence of gynaecological neoplasms was 31.3% in both the study group (300 postmenopausal women) and the control group (300 premenopausal women). The incidence of malignant neoplasms was 24.6% in study group and 8.6% in control group. This difference was highly significant (p < 0.001). Carcinoma cervix (16%) was the commonest gynaecological malignancy followed by ovarian cancer (6%). The incidence of benign neoplasms was lower in the study group (6.6%) as compared to the control (22.6%).
One hundred and two cases of viable pregnancies with threatened abortion were studied in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology, Kamla Nehru Hospital, IG Medical College, Shimla between November 1987 and February 1989 and their perinatal outcome was evaluated. The pregnancies continued beyond 28 weeks in 61.7% of the cases. The incidence of prematurity was 19.0%. The incidence of low birth weight (LBW) babies was 23.8%. Apgar score was less than 7 in 22.3%. The incidence of neonatal complications was 25.3%. There was no perinatal mortality. In a control group of 50 cases, the incidence of prematurity and LBW was 8% and 4% respectively. Apgar score less than 7 was noted in 4% and neonatal complications were observed only in 4% of newborns.
