Tuli Gerdi , Tessaris Daniele , Di Taranto Serena , Giorgis Alberto , Einaudi Silvia , Matarazzo Patrizia

Background: Vaptans, vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist, are used in adults to treat hyponatremia associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis, and the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). To date, in paediatric patients with SIADH there are few data about use of vaptans, still considered off-label.Case presentation 1: A 9-yo female with surgically treated suprasellar astrocitoma developed chronic hyponatremia (121–128 mmol/...

Background: Subjects with non classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCCAH) often present an increased growth velocity secondary to elevation of adrenal androgens that promote early bone maturation and compromise final height (FH). The aim of the study was to analyze prognostic factors affecting growth trajectory and FH in children with NCCAH.Design: retrospective, multicentric studyStud...

Introduction: Despite existing guidelines there is no unified approach to glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid replacement in congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Consequently, treatment varies in adults and children as well as across countries.Objective: We used data from the I-CAH Registry to identify geographical and temporal variations in the treatment with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids of children and adul...

Faisal

Background: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a rare condition characterised by adrenal insufficiency and a life-long risk of adrenal crises. There is a paucity of information on the epidemiology of acute adverse events in this population.Objective: To investigate the frequency, aetiology and consequences of acute adverse events attributed to adrenal insufficiency in CAH.Methods</stro...
