Relation Between CNP Signaling Pathway and the Effect of Combined Treatment with GnRHa and rhGH on the Linear Growth in Mid/Late Pubertal Girls at Great Bone Ages with CPP or EFP

M A Hua-mei , S U Zhe , L I Yin-ya

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of combined treatment with GnRH analogue (GnRHa) and recombinant human GH (rhGH) on the linear growth in mid/late pubertal girls at great bone ages with central precocious puberty (CPP) or early and fast puberty (EFP). To investigate the relation between C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) signaling pathway and GH’s effect on linear growth in these girls. Methods 22 girls were diagnosed as CPP or EFP, whose bone ages were older than 11.5 ye...

Relation Between CNP and the Effect of Combined Treatment With GnRHa and GH on the Linear Growth in Mid/Late Pubertal Girls with Central Precocious Puberty or Early and Fast Puberty at Great Bone Ages

Hua-mei M A , Zhe S U , Yin-ya L I

Background: It’s well known that GnRH analogue (GnRHa) could not improve the final height of mid/late pubertal girls with central precocious puberty (CPP) or early and fast puberty (EFP) for their low growth potential.Objectives: To evaluate the effect of combined treatment with GnRHa and GH on the linear growth in mid/late pubertal girls with CPP/EFP at great bone ages. To investigate the relation between C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and GH&#14...

Hashim Raihana , Senanayaka Ayodya , Kiriwaththuduwa K S U , Vass Angela ,

Background: Adrenal insufficiency is a rare cause of neonatal cholestasis, which is reversible with prompt glucocorticoid administration.Case presentation: A 2-month old baby boy was referred to the paediatric endocrine department for evaluation of intermittent hypoglycaemia associated with metabolic acidosis, hyponatraemia and hyperkalaemia. The infant was second born to second-degree consanguineous parents whose first...

Analysis of CD133+CD45+ Hematopoietic Progenitor/Stem Cells and CD133+/CD45- Very Small Embryonic-Like Stem Cells in Children with GH Deficiency Subjected to GH Therapy

Bossowski A , Singh P , Grubczak K , Radzikowska U , Sawicka B , Miklasz P , Dabrowska M , Bossowska A , Moniuszko M

Background: GH deficiency (GHD) is an endocrine condition, caused by problems arising in the pituitary gland that does not produce sufficient quantities of GH. GHD is treated by replacing GH with one daily injections. Recent studies suggested that GH could be involved in regulation of certain stem cell subset potential and function. However, the exact effects of GH therapy on biology of stem cells in paediatric patients were not studied in detail.Methods...

Comparison of HbA1c and OGTT for the identification of type 2 diabetes in obese children above 10 years of age.

A. M. Dimarsha de Silva U. , Askin Shereen , Jayamanne Bdw , Atapattu Navoda

Background: Childhood obesity is a growing global problem that linked with health issues including type II diabetes. Early screening and diagnosis using OGTT and/or HbA1c of obese children is recommended in order to minimize type II diabetic risk. OGTT requires fasting and two venesections impeding the child’s compliance. In contrast, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a convenient test and evaluation of HbA1C as a diagnostic tool of type II diabetes in the obese...

Background and Aims: Irisin is a newly discovered adipomyokine that occurs by the cleaved from a transmembrane protein called "Fibronectintype III domain containing 5" (FNDC5).Previously, there was a change in irisin levels in different prepubertal and pubertal stages.Although the mechanisms that trigger the onset of puberty cannot be explained yet, there is a hypothesis that peripheral adipose tissue and adipokines secreted there may induce the initia...

A Rare Cause of 46, XX ovotesticular DSD: Tetragametic Gonadal Chimerism

Uçar Ahmet , Güran Tülay , Eren Funda , Dokucu Ali Ihsan , Sahin Süleyman , Tanik Canan

Introduction: Virilization and hirsutism are clinical findings of androjen excess in females mostly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, although androgenic drugs, nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and androgen secreting adrenal/ovarian lesions are also implicated. 46, XX ovotesticular disorder of sex development (DSD) is the rarest form of DSD with an incidence of less than 1 in 20000.Case report: A 15-year-old ado...

Aim: Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita type II is an autosomal dominant disease, characterized by multiple congenital contractures in the limbs without a primary neurological deficit. The most frequently observed clinical features are triangular face, palpebral fissures facing downwards, clarity in nasolabial folds, small mouth, high palate, adherent ear lobes, short stature, camptodactyly, ulnar deviations in the fingers, vertical talus and/or talipes equinovarus.<p clas...

Aim: Pseudoacondroplasia is a short extremity dwarfism characterized by lifelong arthralgia and early onset osteoarthritis. At birth there is a normal height and face appearance. At the beginning of walking, first symptom is a swaying walking nature. Typically, at second year of life, short height becomes apparent and leads to a disproportionate short-limb appearance. In childhood, joint pain in the broad joints especially in the lower extremities is common. Degenerative joint...
