Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare form of monogenic diabetes presenting in the first 6 months of life. NEUROD1 is a transcriptional factor involved in the development of endocrine pancreas. A few patients with maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) due to heterozygous NEUROD1 mutations and only two cases with permanent NDM (PNDM) associated to neurological disorders and cerebellar hypoplasia due to homozygous mutations in the NEUROD1 gene have been reported.<...

Itroduction: Thiamine responsive anemia (TRMA) known as Rogers syndrome; is an early-onset, autosomal recessive disorder characterized by diabetes mellitus, megaloblastic anemia and sensorineural deafness. Diabetes in this condition is well described in infancy but has only very rarely been reported in association with neonatal diabetes.Case: 3-months old male patient with neonatal diabetes was admitted to our outpatient clinic because of uncontrolled hy...

Background: Pycnodysostosis is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by short stature, osteosclerosis, increased bone fragility. In these patients maxillary and mandibular hypoplasia, flattening of the mandibular angle, long soft palate, narrow palate structure can lead to pharyngeal narrowing and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).Objective and hypotheses: Our aim was to evaluate sleep disordered breathing in children with pycnodysostosis.</...

Objective: Spexin is a novel peptide implicated in food intake and satiety. Spexin levels are reduced in obese patients.Aim: To evaluate the associations of metabolic syndrome (metS) antecedents with serum spexin levels in obese adolescents.Setting: A university- based tertiary care centre.Patients and methods: Eighty consecutive obese adolescents aged 10-18 y and 80 healthy ...

Introduction: Primary osteoporosis (POP) is a rare and important problem in childhood that can cause serious skeletal deformities and morbidity. In this study, we aimed to reveal the spectrum of POP in childhood, and also to assess the effectiveness and safety of bisphosphonates in increasing BMD, reducing fractures, and improving quality of life.Method: Patients with POP and who received at least one course of pamidrona...

Introduction: Parathyroid adenoma (PRAD) is less common than in adulthood, but its morbidity is higher in children. The typical presentation is incidentally discovered as asymptomatic hypercalcemia. We aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics of PRAD and our clinical experience since the early disease is often asymptomatic.Method: From 2010-2020, all children diagnosed with PRAD at our institution ...

Objective: Secondary osteoporosis has a high rate of accompanying chronic diseases. We aimed to review the clinical and laboratory features, underlying causes, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) results before and after treatment of patients diagnosed with secondary osteoporosis and to determine the relationship between this condition and fracture rates.Methods: This study was designed as a single-center, descriptiv...

Aim: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues (GnRHa) are widely used in the treatment of idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) cases due to premature maturation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad axis. The effect of GnRHa therapy on body weight and fat distribution is controversial in the literature. We aimed to examine the anthropometric measurements and body composition analysis of the girls with ICPP and to investigate the effect of related factors...

Introduction and Purpose: Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus must be extremely concerned with what they eat and their insulin dose as part of their treatment. Therefore, the risk of eating disorders increases in this patient group. This study, it was aimed to determine the disordered eating behaviors of patients with Type 1 DM and to evaluate the results of the general demographic characteristics, diabetes care behaviors, and quality of life scale that whi...

Aim: 12,13-dihydroxy-9Z-octadecenoic acid (12,13-diHOME) is a lipokine secreted from brown adipose tissue, and it is shown to have positive effects on dyslipidemia. Acute exercise have been shown to lead to an increase in its secretion. It was aimed to investigate the relation of 12,13-diHOME with obesity, exercise and dyslipidemia for the first time in the adolescent age group.Methods: This is a prospective study includ...
