Background: Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is the commonest congenital endocrine disorder in the world and also the commonest most preventable cause of mental retardation. Screening is mandatory in developed countries, but none exists in sub-Saharan country. We present a preliminary report of the first Nigerian screening for CH.Objective and hypotheses: To screen normal newborn babies in different regions in Nigeria and to determine the normal range of T...

Growth pattern of the nigerian child compared to international references

Elusiyan Jerome , Ibekwe MaryAnn Ugochi , Alkali Y , Agwu J. Chizo

Background: There are currently no specific growth charts for use in Nigerian children over the age of 5 years. Health workers rely on charts developed by the Center for Disease Control for children in USA (2000CDC US) or the UK 1990 growth charts for British children. It is unknown whether Nigerian children grow to the same height or at the same tempo as American or British children.Objective and hypotheses: To compare the growth of the Nigerian child t...

Type 1 Diabetes (T1DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to absolute insulin deficiency as a result of autoimmune damage of pancreatic β cells. In its treatment, insulin, medical nutrition therapy and exercise is recommended. Although it is known that exercise contributes to disease control, the mechanism of these effects has not been fully clarified. It is thought that myokines such as irisin and sestrin, can be effective by secreting with...

Diagnosis and management of a child with pituitary adenoma

Skovsager Andersen Marianne ,

A prolactinoma is the most common pituitary adenoma, but a pituitary adenoma is rarely diagnosed in children. Corticotropinomas and somatotropinomas are observed, whereas clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas, TSH-adenomas and gonadotroph adenomas are very rare in children; a minor percentage of pituitary tumours are aggressive. Genetic cause and syndromic disease are more often seen in children and adolescents with a pituitary adenoma compared to adults, and it is nec...

Adipocytokines in Placenta and Cord Blood in Relation to Maternal Obesity, and Foetal and Postnatal Growth of the Child

Allbrand Marianne , AEman Jan , Lodefalk Maria

Background: The nutritional and hormonal state in utero may be a link between maternal obesity and obesity in the offspring. The gene expression in placentae in pregnancies complicated by diabetes is reduced for leptin, but increased for ghrelin. It is not known whether these genes’ expressions in placentae are altered in maternal obesity.Objectives and hypotheses: To compare obese and normal-weight women and their children concerning gene ...

Kenny-Caffey Type 2 syndrome (KCT2S) as a rare cause of hypoparathyroidism causing neonatal seizures

Granzotto Marguerite , Weitzel Christina , Scalais Emmanuel , Becker Marianne

We report a male patient born small for gestational age (birth weight 2090 g, -2.97 SDS; birth length 43.5 cm, -3.37 SDS), with dysmorphic features (triangular face, low-set, posteriorly rotated ears, pectus excavatum, large anterior fontanel) who presented with seizures at the age of 4 weeks. The child was treated with antiepileptic drugs (Levetiracetam, Midazolam, Phenobarbital, carbamazepine) for 1 year until a severe hypocalcemia (Calcium 6.4 mg/dl, ionised calcium 0.78 mm...

S.c. Injections of a Reversible Albumin-Binding GH Derivative (NNC0195-0092) in Adult Subjects with GH Deficiency is Well Tolerated

Rasmussen Michael Hojby , Janukonyte Jurgita , Klose Marianne , Marina Djordje , Tanvig Mette , Nielsen Lene , Hoybye Charlotte , Andersen Marianne , Feldt-Rasmussen Ulla , Christiansen Jens

Background: Recombinant human GH (rhGH) is normally administered as a daily s.c. injection. NNC0195-0092 is a reversible albumin-binding GH derivative developed with the aim of reducing clearance and thereby extending the exposure. It has previously been demonstrated that NNC0195-0092 is well tolerated in healthy subjects with the potential for once weekly administration.Objective and hypotheses: In this trial NNC0195-0092 was administrated subcutaneousl...

Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma in a 7 Year Old Boy Presenting with a Goiter Without Microcalcifications and Enlarged Cervical Lymph Nodes

Becker Marianne , Vega Letizia , De Beaufort Carine , Philippe Paul , Kieffer Isabelle

Introduction: Only 1.8% of thyroid malignancies occur during childhood, explaining very limited pediatric data. Most frequent in children are papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), occurring after exposure to radiation, and presenting as a thyroid nodule ± cervical lymph nodes. PTC may present as diffusely infiltrating disease of the thyroid with microcalcifications. We report an uncommon presentation of a PTC in a 7 year old boy.Case report: The boy wa...

Hematocolpos Revealed by Non-cyclic Lower-back Pain in a Pre-menarcheal Girl

Ly Nathalie , Jaroussie Marianne , Kyheng Christele , De Filippo Gianpaolo , Levy-Zauberman Yael , Fernandez Herve , Duranteau Lise

Background: Hematocolpos is a rare condition in young girls that can be caused by imperforated hymen or vaginal agenesis. It is usually diagnosed at early puberty with cyclic abdominal pain and amenorrhoea. Menarche is usually observed two years after the start of puberty; sometimes pre-menarcheal bleeding can occur, ranging from isolated premature menarche to spotting in course of puberty. In case of imperforated hymen or vaginal anomaly, a pre-menarcheal uterine bleeding can...
