[Laser therapy of diabetic retinopathy in pregnancy].

During the regular follow-up of risk pregnancies in the Central Bohemian region, concentrated at the First Obstetric Clinic in Prague, the authors detected 34 women with retinopathies. In nine they performed panretinal photocoagulation by means of an argon laser and recorded favourable results. The authors consider early laser therapy of retinopathies in pregnant diabetics useful and essential. Advanced forms of diabetic retinopathy in pregnant women still remain a contraindication of pregnancy. Pregnancy in diabetic women is always a risk and it would be a mistake not to take this fact into account.

Comparison of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and albuminuria with clinical finding of microangiopathy in type I diabetes mellitus.

N-acetyl-beta-Glucosaminidase activity in serum and urine and microalbuminuria were measured in 70 type-I diabetics and compared with glycated serum protein as well as with the finding of diabetic retinopathy. A significantly increased N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity in serum correlated positively with glycated protein but not with the development of retinopathy. Urinary N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity and albuminuria were significantly increased in diabetics with (p less than 0.001) or without (p less than 0.01) retinopathy as compared to healthy controls. A significant positive correlation was observed between urinary N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity and albuminuria (r = 0.73, p less than 0.01) as well as between blood pressure and albuminuria (r = 0.51, p less than 0.05).
