Background: To explore the reason of children on the 46,XY DSD.Objective and hypotheses: To analyze the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and management of a case with steroid 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency (SRD5A2) and perform related gene mutation analysis with a view to raising awareness of this disease.Method: A 2 year old 5 months child came with abnomal vulval shape. Karyotype was analyzed by chromosome cultivation. Gn...

Purpose: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) are commonly used to treat children with central precocious puberty and generally well-tolerated. However, as the number of cases using increases, drug-related adverse reactions are also on the rise. This study aim ed to report the clinical experience with hypersensitivity reactions in pediatric patients receiving GnRHa at a tertiary medical center, especially the relatively rare cases of failure to supp...

Introduction: Fanconi-Bickel syndrome (FBS), is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of carbohydrate metabolism (FBS, OMIM 227810), caused by defects in the facilitative glucose transporter glut-2, which transports glucose in and out of hepatocytes, pancreatic β cells and basolateral membranes of intestinal and renal epithelial cells. Characteristic features include growth failure, hepatomegaly, glucose and galactose intolerance, fasting hypoglycemia, and renal tubular nep...

Background: Psychosocial factors and health events are important for patients with chronic diseases such type 1 diabetes (TD1).Objective and hypotheses: The aim was to explore the psychosocial factors, health events and comorbidity found at diagnosis and during the follow up of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Also to analyze the association between socioeconomic status and glycaemic control.Method: Medical charts of ...

Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most serious acute complication of type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM). It is important to know the factors associated with the development of DKA and elaborate preventive strategies to reduce their prevalence.Objective and hypotheses: To identify DKA predictive risk factors in the initial presentation of T1DM in children and adolescents.Method: We conducted a retrospective study, by analy...

Context: Turner Syndrome (TS) is associated with ovarian dysgenesis leading to infertility in most of the cases. There are some options for fertility preservation in patients with sufficient follicle numbers. The most recently studied are oocyte preservation and ovarian tissue preservation. Due to premature ovarian failure among TS girls, the procedure should be performed as early as possible.The aim of this study is to ...

Objective: Vaspin plays an important role in the foetal and postnatal development of children. The effect of early-onset infection in neonates on vaspin levels is not well known.The aim of the study: 1) evaluation of serum vaspin concentrations in full-term appropriate-for-gestational-age (AGA) newborns, according to their gender, birth asphyxia, type of delivery, occurrence of early-onset infections; 2) analysis of correlations between serum vaspin conc...

Introduction: Hypoglycemia can be caused by inherited metabolic disorders, such as glycogen storage disease (GSD) type 0a, which is mild form of the GSD. After diagnosis patient received appropriate treatment and care. Assessment 3 years after diagnosis may improve the treatment of key disorders in this disease and allow the identification of disorders occurring in long-term patients.Case report: 4 years old female patie...

Background: Emerging evidence suggests the presence of distinct endotypes of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM): T1DE1 in individuals diagnosed at age <7 years in contrast to T1DE2 in those diagnosed at ≥13 years of age. We aimed to comprehensively explore the phenotypic heterogeneity of T1DM with respect to the age-related endotypes.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in China involving 1,204 children n...

This study represents the first documentation of the coexistence of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) with Müllerian duct remnants (MDRs) in mainland China. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive review of the existing literature concerning CAIS with MDRs resulting from androgen receptor (AR) gene mutations. This study broadens the clinical spectrum of CAIS and offer novel insights for further exploration into Müllerian duct regression. A 14-...
