Objective: We sought to evaluate the role of long-term HRT on the lipid profile and glucose metabolism in girls with TS.Design: A pre-test/post-test observational study.Seting: Pediatric TS clinic in The First Affiated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University.Patients: 56 girls with TS had accurate maintenance HRT data....

Objective: To understand the clinical characteristics, etiological distribution and related metabolic problems of children with premature pubarche.Methods: The clinical data of 55 cases of premature pubarche were summarized. All the children were tested by ACTH stimulation test and GnRHa stimulation test, of which 17 cases were detected by CYP21A2 gene,and 16 cases of Premature Adrenarche (PA) and 14 cases of Isolated Pr...

Background: —Floating-Harbor syndrome(FHS) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder associated with heterozygous mutations in SRCAP gene. The SRCAP protein activates the cAMP-response element binding protein-binding protein(CREBBP) gene that is involved in the regulation of cell growth and division.Objective: To report on long-term follow-up data of a boy with FHSMethods:...

Patients with Floating-Harbor syndrome have broad spectrum of clinical presentation, but most of them have short stature, low birth weight, delayed bone age, delayed speech development, typical craniofacial features, anomaly of fingers and toes, cryptorchidism in males, renal anomalies, strabismus.Case report: 4 year old male patient with mutation in SRCAP gene Gln2622Ter/- is followed up in our Pediatric Endocrinology Outpatient Clinic ...

Some of them have significant neurocognitive deficits, hypopituitarism, hypothyroidism, gut abnormalities, biliary atresia, gallbladder agenesis.Case Report: The 5.5 year old f...

Background: Detail knowledge of pubertal development mode in girls with Turner syndrome (TS) who underwent hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is benefit for the proposal of an optimal HRT. The study was to study the pubertal development mode of girls with TS who underwent HRT and to evaluate the optimal therapy for sex induction in girls with TS.Method: We present a retrospective, longitudinal study over the past two deca...

We present two cases of a 13-year-old boy and a 12-year-old girl who were initially diagnosed as central diabetes insipidus (CDI). The Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed pituitary stalk thickening with prominent homogeneous contrast enhancement in T1W and the loss of high signal in the posterior pituitary. In addition to CDI, the two children have a common clinical manifestation of growth retardation, with the laboratory tests suggesting complete growth hormone deficiency...
