MOPD is known to be caused by homozygous loss-of-function mutations in a specific gene, PCNT. Both intra- and interfamilial clinical variability (even for the same variant) have been frequently observed, which makes it difficult to infer a genotype–phenotype correlation. Pericentrin (PCTN) is a structural protein expressed in the centrosome that plays a fundamental role in anchoring protein complexes, regulating mitotic cycle and thus cell proliferation. High levels of m...

Introduction: The diagnostic gold standard for Central Precocious puberty (CPP) is the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) stimulation test. MR imaging of the brain (MRI) and the hypothalamus-pituitary region is required to exclude organic causes.Objective: The aim of the study was to explore a radiomic model that could assist physicians in the diagnostic workup of CPP.Methods: 4...
