GDM prevalence is higher when using newer IADPSG, compared with WHO, criteria, and these women and their offspring experience significant adverse pregnancy outcomes. Higher rates of GDM pose a challenge to healthcare systems, but improved screening provides an opportunity to attempt to reduce the associated morbidity for mother and child.

Hyponatraemia is common following SAH and is associated with longer hospital stay. Clipping and coiling of aneurysms are associated with higher rates of hyponatraemia. SIADH is the commonest cause of hyponatraemia after SAH. Delayed hyponatraemia is common, and has implications for early discharge strategies.

Adult patients treated with cranial irradiation for primary nonpituitary brain tumors are at high risk of hypopituitarism, which is time and dose dependent. Long-term surveillance and periodic evaluation are needed. We recommend that adult late effect clinics, similar to those for children, should be established.
