Basal-bolus insulin therapy is currently, the most common treatment modality in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) worldwide. Insulin glargine and detemir are two different molecules, produced with small modifications, of human insulin. In this prospective longitudinal study, we aimed to compare HbA1c, time in range in CGM, basal insulin doses and hypoglyccemia frequencies in children and adolescents with T1DM who underwent switching from insulin det...

Purpose: MODY is a monogenic diabetes with autosomal dominant inheritance that usually occurs in adolescence or young adulthood. It constitutes 1% of diabetes cases in childhood. The diagnosis of MODY is very difficult due to genetic heterogeneity, rarity, and clinical overlap with other diabetes types. In recent years, the diagnosis of MODY has become easier with genetic developments. On the other hand, misinterpretation of results can cause confusion. In thi...

Aim: This study aimed to compare the levels of appetite-regulating hormones (ghrelin, leptin, peptide-YY (PYY), neuropeptide-Y (NPY)) in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) before treatment with prepubertal girls, and to evaluate changes in these hormone levels and body composition during leuprolide acetate (LA) treatment.Methods: This prospective, cross-sectional study included girls with ICPP, isola...

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...

Objective: The use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists for the medical treatment of childhood obesity was approved by the FDA four years ago; however, clinical experiences are limited. In this context, our study aims to present the clinical data of obese adolescents receiving liraglutide treatment in our clinic, providing preliminary insights into its efficacy and potential benefits.Method: We retrospectively eva...
