Background: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is the most important causes of persistent hypoglycemia in infants during the first few days after birth.Objective and hypotheses: We report an 11-day-old female infant admitted with persistent hypoglycemia since 11 h after born.Method: Multiple tests and imageological examinations were used to detect the cause of hypoglycemia. A whole-body PET CT-scan with [⊃F]-L-di...

Objective: To investigate the clinical and molecular characteristics of a girl with aldosterone synthase deficiency type II (ASDII). We also identified the consequences of a novel splice site mutation in the CYP11B2 gene.Materials and Methods: A4-month-old girl presented with vomiting, diarrhea, and failure to thrive. Her 17α-OHP, cortisol, renin, and aldosterone were all in the normal range, and the ACTH stimulatio...

Objective: To determine the mutation in the SRY gene in a 46,XY complete gonadal dysgenesis patient with bilateral gonadoblastoma and coexisting dysgerminoma. Evaluate the functional consequence of mutated SRY gene in the tumor risk of 46,XY DSD.Methods and Materials: The proband was a 13-year-old girl who was admitted for examination due to undeveloped secondary sexual characteristics. She had no breas...

Objective To study a large Chinese family with Type A Insulin Resistance Syndrome (TAIRS) and the members’ clinical phenotypes. Explore their genotype-phenotype relationship between environmental factors and hereditary features. Methods 19 members of the family were investigated for their past history, dietary habits and living habits. PCR and Sanger sequencing were applied to detect mutations of the INSR gene among 6 core members from the Pedigree. Besides, fasting blood...

Objectives: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is mostly considered X chromosome abnormalities in child. Few of POI cases are associated with autosomal abnormalities. This study was to identify new genes involved POI in three girls.Methods: Three girls who came to the hospital because of no menstruation were investigated. They were 14, 15, and 14 years old. They did not find any breast tissue in their physical examination. Clinical data, sex hormones,...

Objective Summarizing and analysing the clinical characteristics of 193 patients with McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) in China to improve the understanding of MAS for early detection, diagnosis and management. Methods All MAS-themed case-report or case-series studies published by the Chinese between January 1990 and November 2022 were retrieved from the Wanfang Full Text, CNKI, China Science and Technology Journal, PubMed and Embase databases, and clinical data were collected. ...
