Introduction: In cases of precocious puberty, an important factor in making treatment decisions is when adult height estimates based on bone age (BA) determination are behind midparental height. In Turkey, clinicians often use the Greulich Pyle (GP) atlas to determine BA, which can lead to significant differences between assessors. The aim of this study was to compare estimated adult height (EAH) calculations based on BA determined by the automated BoneXpert m...

Introduction: One of the factors affecting the treatment decision in early puberty is bone age (BA) evaluation and adult height prediction (AHP), accordingly. These calculations have certain limitations. In this study, we aimed to compare the AHP results calculated by Bayley-Pinneau (BP) and Roche-Wainer-Thissen(RWT) methods based on BA evaluation by using Greulich-Pyle(GP) atlas and BoneXpert™ software.Methods: A t...

McCune-Albright Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by triad of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia of bone, precocious puberty and café au lait skin pigmentation. It is resulted from an activating mutation in the GNAS gene encoding the alpha subunitof stimulatory G protein. Here we present two cases with McCune Albright syndrome presenting with different clinical findings.Case 1: A 7-year and 6 month-old girl presented with breast ...

Background: Irisin is an adipomyokine secreted by many tissues. Because it has known relationships with the energy metabolism and exercise, its relationships with obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are being focused on. Its relationship with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is unknown.Objective and hypotheses: In this study, the relationships between the serum irisin level and the metabolic control were investigated in adolescents with T1D.Met...

Introduction: With the development and use of automated insulin delivery (AID) technologies like Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop (AHCL or Minimed 780G) system, it becomes possible to achieve tighter glycemic control. A new parameter called “Time in Tight Range” (TITR, 70-140 mg/dL) has been proposed to evaluate glycemic control in the latest consensus on the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data in diabetes research. This study aims to assess...
