Introduction: 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. Some of them are treated with growth hormone.Case report: 4 year old male patient with mutation in SRCAP gene Gln2622Ter/- with...

Background: Maternal triglycerides, fatty acids, and their metabolites together with sugars and metabolic intermediates may play a role in newborn outcomes. Furthermore, maternal amino acids, acylcarnitines, lipids and fatty acids and their metabolites are associated with cord C-peptide independent of maternal BMI and glycemia, highlighting the potential contribution of maternal metabolites to offspring outcomes. This study examined the associations of materna...

Introduction: Patients with GATA6 gene mutations have broad spectrum of clinical presentation, but most of them have pancreatic agenesis or hypotrophy, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, insulin-treated neonatal diabetes and cardiac malformations. Some of them have significant neurocognitive deficits, hypopituitarism, hypothyroidism, gut abnormalities, biliary atresia, gallbladder agenesis.Case Report: The 5.5 year old f...

Introduction: Alstrom syndrome is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder with mutation in the ALMS 2p12-13 gene and its characteristic features are: pigmented retinopathy, deafness, growth deficiency, obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, nephropathy and cardiomyopathy.Aim of the study: Evaluation of anthropometric parameters, thyroid function, carbohydrate metabolism and lipid profile in five patients with diagnosed Alstrom syndro...

Introduction: Gestational diabetes is one of the most common medical disorders and may cause numerous maternal and fetal complications. It constitutes one of the most frequent pregnancy health problems and may cause wide range of complications such as: preterm births, congenital defects, sacral agenesis, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, metabolic changes and macrosomia in neonates. Therefore, early detection and implementation of guideline-based screening tests, are crucial. One o...
