Objective: To enhance the detection, management and monitoring of Chinese children afflicted with sitosterolemia by examining the physical characteristics and genetic makeup of pediatric patients.Methods: In this group, 26 children were diagnosed with sitosterolemia, 24 of whom underwent genetic analysis. Patient family medical history, physical symptoms, tests for liver function, lipid levels, standard blood tests, phyt...

Objective: The aim of this study was to detect potential gene mutation of Noonan Syndrome in a Chinese family.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. The PTPN11, KRAS, SOS1, RAF1, NRAS, BRAF, RIT1, SOS2, LZTR1, SHOC2, CBL, NF1 gene was sequenced to identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the development of Noonan Syndrome by P...

Objective: The aim of this study was to detect potential gene mutation of idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism Syndrome (IHH) in a Chinese family.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. A Disorder of Sexual Development (DSD) gene panel was applied to identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the DSD and verified by Sanger.</...

Research Objectives: Studies have shown that Akkermansiella mucinophila has a positive effect in various metabolic diseases, and can also prevent the onset of spontaneous type 1 diabetic NOD mice. However, its effect on type 1 diabetic mice is not clear. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Akkermansiella mucinophila intervention on type 1 diabetic mice.Research Methods: Thirty male C57BL / 6 mice aged 3...

Background: Sex hormones are crucial for the growth and development of children and adolescents. Several studies have indicated the association between lifestyle factors and sex hormones in adulthood. However, few studies have assessed the association of lifestyle factors and sex hormones among children and adolescents. This study aim ed to assess the association between lifestyle factors and sex hormones in children and adolescents.<str...

Objective: This study analyzed ten short stature patients with growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor-1 (GH-IGF-1) axis gene variants, and aim ed to explore both clinical and genetic characteristics, as well as the recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) treatment response through a review of the literature.Methods: The clinical characteristics and response to rhGH treatment in 10 patients with GH1, GHR</...

Objective: Dyslipidemia is a disease characterized by a genetic or multifactorial disorder of lipid and/or lipoprotein metabolism. Childhood dyslipidemia is a rare genetic metabolic disease that can cause serious cardiovascular disease and seriously endanger children's health.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 10 patients with dyslipidemia who were admitted to the Department of Endocrinology, C...

Context: The majority of congenital isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD) cases are idiopathic.Recent research has shed light on the genetic aetiologies of congenital hypopituitarism. HESX1 and GLI2 are two transcription factors, amongst a cascade of other transcription factors and signalling molecules, involved in the development of the pituitary gland. Mutations in both genes have been shown to cause congenital hypopituitarism with varying phenotypes.</p...

Background: Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia with joint laxity type 1(SEMD-JL1) is a rare entity with a recessive inheritance. It is one of the genetic skeletal disorders (GSD) and B3GALT6 loss-of-function mutations were found in individuals with SEMD-JL1 from several families. However, there was no case described in China.Case report: An 8-year-old boy presented to our hospital with short stature, hyperlaxity w...

Objective: The aim of this study was to detect potential gene mutation of Methylmalonic acidemia (MAA) in a Chinese patient.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. A NGS panel include MUT,MMAA,MMAB,MMADHC and MCEE genes was identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the MAA and verified by Sanger.Results: A...
