Background: Genome-wide association studies have identified rs314276, rs314263, rs7759938 and rs314280 in or near the LIN28B gene as associated with age at menarche. To date, the effect of polymorphisms in this gene on idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) in Chinese girls have not been reported.Objective and hypotheses: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of the four loci with ICCP in Chinese girls.Method:...

Objective: To explore the diagnostic value of morning urinary gonadotropins for assessing central precocious puberty (CPP) in girls with varying BMI and the potential use of first morning voided urinary luteinizing hormone (FMV ULH) in monitoring CPP treatment.Methods: A total of 335 precocious puberty girls were selected. Data of serum luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), gonadotropin-releasing ...
