    Notes: Summary Using a glucose infusion test insulin responses and insulin sensitivities were studied in 15 gestational diabetic women at 36–40 weeks gestation. In all women intravenous glucose tolerance had returned to normal at six weeks postpartum. Twelve women had a repeat glucose infusion test done 7–24 weeks (mean 17 weeks) postpartum. The results were compared with previously evaluated normal non-pregnant and normal pregnant standards and insulin responses below the normal 15th percentile were defined as “low”. Twelve women had “low” insulin responses in late pregnancy, and six had “low” insulin responses postpartum. The mean insulin sensitivity index of 1.34±1.21 (mean ±SD) was significantly higher in the gestational diabetic group during pregnancy compared with a control pregnant group at 0.53±0.21 (p〈0.01). The findings in this study support the hypothesis that gestational diabetes may arise in women who are unable to achieve adequate insulinogenic compensation to pregnancy. Increased insulin sensitivity in gestational diabetes may be a compensatory mechanism.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Certains des aspects du métabolisme des graisses et de la cétogenèse ont été examinés chez des souris hyperglycémiques obèses, leurs compagnons de portée non-obèses et chez des souris normales. La proportion des lipides totaux du foie s'est révélée comme étant la plus grande chez les souris obèses, et la composition d'acide gras des lipides totaux du foie a fait apparaotre chez les souris obèses une proportion d'acide linoléique qui était largement réduite par rapport aux autres groupes. Des homogénats de foie complet ont montré des taux de lipolyse de graisse endogene peu élevés, mais des homogénats de foie dégraissé ont montré une lipolyse rapide de monoglyceride ajoutée. Les taux d'acide gras libre dans les foies des souris obèses étaient plus bas que ceux de leurs compagnons de portée ou des souris normales. La production cétonique totale des tranches de foie provenant des souris obèses était moins élevée que celle des souris normales. Il en a été conclu que la production de corps cétoniques chez les souris obèses était liée aux taux d'acide gras libre du foie plutôt qu'aux lipides du foie total.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Einige Aspekte des Fettstoffwechsels und der Ketogenese wurden bei fetten hyperglykämischen Mäusen, ihren nichtfetten Wurfgeschwistern und normalen Mäusen untersucht. Der Anteil der Gesamtle-berlipide war am größten bei den fetten Mäusen; die Fettsäurenzusammensetzung der Lebergesamtlipide zeigte einen stark reduzierten Anteil der Linolsäure bei fetten Mäusen, wenn man sie mit den andern Gruppen verglich. Die Gesamtleber-Homogenate zeigten niedrige Quoten der Lipolyse endogenen Fettes, aber entfettete Leberhomogenate zeigten eine schnelle Lipolyse zugesetzter Monoglyceride. Der Spiegel der freien Fettsäuren in den Lebern fetter Mäuse war niedriger als bei den Wurfgeschwistern oder bei normalen Mäusen. Die Gesamtketonkörper-Produktion von Leberschnitten fetter Mäuse war niedriger als bei normalen Mäusen. Es wird der Schluß gezogen, daß die Ketonkörperproduktion fetter Mäuse eher auf das Niveau der freien Fettsäuren der Leber als auf die Gesamtleberlipide zu beziehen ist.
    Notes: Summary Some aspects of fat metabolism and ketogenesis have been investigated in obese hyperglycaemic mice, their non-obese littermates and normal mice. The proportion of total liver lipids was greatest in the obese mice, and the fatty acid composition of the liver total lipids showed a greatly reduced proportion of linoleic acid in the obese mice when compared with the other groups. Whole liver homogenates showed low rates of lipolysis of endogenous fat, but defatted liver homogenates showed a rapid lipolysis of added monoglyceride. Free fatty acid levels in the livers of obese mice were lower than in littermates or in normal mice. Total ketone production by liver slices from obese mice was lower than from normal mice. It was concluded that ketone production by the obese mice was related to liver free fatty acid levels rather than to total liver lipid.

    Notes: Summary To study insulin response and insulin sensitivity a glucose infusion test was devised. Twenty normal non-pregnant and twenty normal pregnant women had an intravenous glucose tolerance test followed by a glucose infusion test. In a normal pregnant group at 38–40 weeks gestation (n=20) the plasma insulin response was found to be 3.7 times greater than that observed in a normal non-pregnant group (n=20), while in the normal pregnant group the insulin sensitivity index was only 18 per cent of that observed in the non-pregnant group. Intravenous glucose tolerance in the non-pregnant women was observed to correlate with the insulin sensitivity index (r=0.61, p〈0.05) but in the pregnant women it correlated with the insulin response (r=0.66, p〈0.01). These findings support the hypothesis that in the non-pregnant state intravenous glucose tolerance may be primarily related to insulin sensitivity while during pregnancy it may be related to the degree of compensatory hyperinsulinism.

    Notes: This paper describes the occurrence of bullous pemphigoid in a 71-year-old female patient who subsequently developed polymyalgia rheumatica and hyperthyroidism. The association of bullous pemphigoid with other autoimmune disorders is discussed.

    Notes: The fasting plasma glucose and fasting plasma insulin levels of eight normal outpatient primigravidae have been studied over six successive days at 37 weeks' gestation. In addition, the fasting plasma glucose in six primigravidae, who were in-patients in a metabolic unit, has been measured on three successive days. It is concluded that while there is in general little day-to-day variation in both fasting plasma glucose and fasting plasma insulin, the plasma glucose was significantly elevated on the first day of the study.

    Notes: Summary.— A family with the endocrine candidiasis syntdrome is described, in which 3 members with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism also suffered from oral and cutaneous candidiasis. Alopecia areata developcd in l of the affected members, A review of 42 cases described in the literature revealed 13 patients with alopecia areata. The eyelashes or eyebrows were iiivolved in 12 patients. Addison's disease appears to be commoner in those patients with the syndrome who also have alopecia areata. The evidence from this retrospective analysis is not conclusive and merits further observation, but these findings are in keeping with a possible autoimmune aetiology for alopecia areata.
