Introduction: One of the strategies of searching the genetic causes of CDGP is analysing the genes responsible for hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH).Objective: To investigate the role of the HS6ST1 gene in development CDGP.Materials and Methods: Two patients - height and BMI SDS, bone age, genitometric parameters, basal hormones, GnRH analogue test, hCG test, olfactometry, brain-M...

Background: The pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is based on defective insulin secretion by pancreatic β-cells and the inability of insulin-sensitive tissues to respond appropriately to insulin. Young people have a more aggressive course of the disease. However, the impact and sequence of pathological mechanisms involved in the development of T2DM in adolescents hasn’t been established. Diagnosis of the prediabetes in time can be u...

Background: The increased prevalence of youth obesity has led to raised youth-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as well as the intermediate condition of prediabetes. Diagnosis of prediabetes can help preventing of the development of T2DM.Aims: to study the frequency, clinical laboratory diagnostics and relationship of prediabetes with SDS BMI in obese adolescents.Materials: Th...

Objective of the research: To compare clinical laboratory and genitometric parameters in girls with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) and constitutional delayed puberty (CDP).Materials and Methods: 23 female patients with delayed puberty are included in the study.Inclusion criteria: Absence of secondary sexual characteristics at age ≥13 years or absence of menarche at age ≥1...

Objective: To analyze the structure of puberty delay in girls depending on the etiology of the disease.Materials and methods: 51 girls with puberty delay (14.2±0.82) were examined. Inclusion criteria: absence of secondary sex characteristics at 13; or absence of menarche by age 15 years or the absence of menarche during 3 years from the onset of estrogen-dependent puberty signs development. Exclusion criteria: age ≥18, аmbiguous genital...

Materials and methods: we included 51 girls with puberty delay (mean age 14.2±0.82 years) into the study. Inclusion criteria: no secondary sex characteristics by the age of 13 years; or no menstruation by age 15 years or no menarche during 3 years or more from the onset of estrogen-dependent signs of puberty development. Exclusion criteria: age 18 years or more, аmbiguous genitalia. According to clinical characteristics girls were divided into 3 g...

Hypogonadism is represented by a hypo- and hypergonadotropic variant. Antymüllerian hormone (AMH) and inhibin B are used to assess ovarian reserve, but in pediatric practice their role has not been studied. The main interest is to conduct the study of ovarian reserve in hypogonadism among girls.Objective of the Research: To compare the content of inhibin B, AMH and estradiol in girls with hyper- and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism...

Objective: This study aim ed to investigate the effect of height on the quality of life in boys with delayed puberty and to compare the groups of boys with delayed puberty depending on height SDS among themselves.Design, Patients, and Measurement: A total of 17 boys with delayed puberty (average age 14.3 ± 1.08) were included.Study design: depending on height SDS, there were 2 g...

Background: The development of diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) involves a disbalance between pancreatic β-cell function and insulin sensitivity. The impact and sequence of pathological mechanisms involved in the development of T2DM in adolescents haven’t been established.Aims: To compare the role of pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance in the development of prediabetes and T2DM in obese ad...
