Diazoxide Choline Controlled Release Tablet (DCCR) is under development for the treatment of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). The objective of this research was to characterize single dose and steady state pharmacokinetics, dose linearity and food effects of DCCR across five clinical studies. Single dose pharmacokinetics of DCCR were compared to diazoxide oral suspension (Proglycem®) in a study in obese subjects (PK001). Steady state pharmacokinetics were evaluated...

Background: Obese adults with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) but 1-h post load glucose (1 hPG)≧155 mg/dl have an increased cardiometabolic risk. In children, preliminary data suggest that 1hPG≧132.5 mg/dl might identify those at higher risk of type 2 diabetes.Objective and hypotheses: To assess whether NGT obese youth with 1hPG ≧132.5 mg/dl (High-NGT) have worse insulin sensitivity and secretion compared to obese youth with 1hPG &#60...

Background: Precocious puberty (PP) in girls is defined by the appearance of secondary sex characteristic before the age of 8 years. Numerous studies reported no deficit of final adult height in girls with pubertal onset between 6-8 years compared with their genetic height, however, there were limited studies on the aspect of psychological outcomes of PP girls compare with the same age prepubertal girls.Objective: To eva...

Context: Alterations in semen characteristics and Sertoli and Leydig cell function have been described in obese male adults. Whether these alterations occur before adulthood has not been fully evaluated.Objective and Design: Cross sectional study from 2010 to 2018 describing gonadic function in overweight-obese (ow/ob) boys through childhood and adolescence.Setting: Monocentric study in the Pediatric Endocrinology ...

Introduction: In obese boys, alteration of Sertoli and Leydig cell functions have been described, but potential reversibility of these alterations after weight loss during childhood has not been fully evaluated.Objective: Evaluate the impact of weight loss on gonadic function in obese boys.Setting: Monocentric study in the Pediatric Endocrinology Unit of Angers University Hospital ant its follow-up...

Background: Non-communicable disease epidemic is directly related to the dislipidemia and insulin resistance (IR) that associated with acute cardiovascular events. Meanwhile, there is not much has known about interrelation between this parameters in pediatric patients.Purpose: of the study is to analyze associations between lipids and insulin resistance so as to screen high risk subjects during adolescence.<p class="...

Background: Suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal system activity by luliberin analogues in premature sexual development of the central genesis is accompanied by a decrease in growth’s velocity, sexual development and progression of bone age.Aim: Study of the effectiveness of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist therapy, their influence on the physical developmentMethods: 66 patients were treated by triptorelin. Idio...

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) patients have a higher frequency of obesity, visceral adiposity, hyperinsulinism, insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism. There is increasing evidence that low vitamin D status is associated with impaired β-cell function, insulin resistance and impaired glucose tolerance.Objectives: This pilot aimed to determine the status of serum 25 (OH) D levels in CAH female patients who are followed up in Diabetes Endocrine...

Introduction: Data on BP in children with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is inconsistent.Aim: To assess the trend in BP throughout childhood using data from the International CAH registry and compare this to normative data from the American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP).Method: This retrospective multi-centre study included 37 centres from 20 countries. BP data was ana...

Background: Childhood obesity is one of the most important causes of end-stage renal disease. The onset of obesity-associated renal disease is insidious and asymptomatic. To date available markers do not perfectly mimic kidney injury and may not characterize kidney changes especially in early stages and of renal tubulointerstitium. Tubular changes (KIM-1 and NGAL) are already apparent before the onset of proteinuria or alterations of GFR and thus might represent biomarker that...
