Objective and hypotheses: To compare the different efficacies between recombinant human GH (rhGH) alone and rhGH combined with low does stanozolol on improving growth of the girls with Turner syndrome (TS).Method: TS girls were divided into two groups. Group 1 (15 cases) received rhGH therapy, aged (13.09±2.70) years, bone age (11.00±1.01) years, height was (131.46±8.22) cm. Group 2 (22 cases) received low does stanozolol combined with rhG...

Background: X-linked Adrenal Hypoplasia Congenita (AHC) is a very rare hereditary cause of pediatric primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI). Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydrolase deficiency(21OHD) is most common hereditary cause of pediatric PAI with autodominal recessive inheritance.Objective: To present a Chinese boy with PAI with the pathogenic mutation of NROB1 and Double mutants in cis of CYP21A2 gen...

Objective: To summarize the metabolic status in children with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia(CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD).Methods: Children with classic 21OHD from Pediatric Endocrinology Clinics at the First affiliated hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from January 1990 to February 2023 were included in the study. The prevalence of overweight/obesity, dyslipidemia [high triglyceride (TG), high ...

Objective: To establish INS-1 cell iron overload model, and study the effect on iron overload, proliferation, insulin secretion, mitochondria defect and oxidative stress change.Methods: INS-1 cells were cultured with different concentrations (0 as control and 5, 10, 20, 40, 80,160,320µmol/L respectively) of ferric ammonium citrate (FAC). Labile iron pool (LIP) were calculated by detecting calcein-AM fluorescence ...

Objective: To investigate the clinical features and genetic characteristics of HRAS-associated Costello Syndrome.Method: Characteristics of clinical data and gene mutation of two cases Costello Syndrome in XX hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The related literature was searched by using search terms ‘HRAS’ or ‘Costello Syndrome’.Result: Both patients were presented with mental retardation, growth retardati...

Objective: To assess the effects and safety of recombinant human GH (rhGH) in GH deficient (GHD) children with Rathke cyst.Methods: The clinical data of 12 GHD children aged from 5–12 years old, whose radiologic diagnosis showed Rathke cyst during Jan 2010–Dec 2012 in our hospital, were analyzed retrospectively. rhGH was given subcutaneously to each enrolled child with a night dose of 0.1 IU/kg six to seven times a week for 12–30 months. T...

Background: Data on prevalence and phenotypic distribution of dyslipidaemia in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is scarce. Studies have shown that lipid abnormality tracks from childhood to adulthood and contributes to atherosclerotic process, therefore initial assessment and follow-up is essential.Aims: To study the prevalence and phenotypic distribution of dyslipidaemia in children with T1D and compare with type 2 diabetes (T2D).<p class="abstex...

Keywords: Prader-Willi syndrome; Gut microbiota; Insulin sensitivity; Metagenomics sequencing; Obesity.Aim: Obesity is the main driving factor for comorbidities in Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) patients due to overeating behaviors. The gut microbiota has been implicated in the aetiology of obesity and associated comorbidities. The purpose of the present study is to characterize the fecal microbiota in Chinese patients with...

Objective: We report a case of a 5y3m patient who complained of breast development with "45, X Turner syndrome (TS) and HCG-secreting gonadoblastoma (Gb)" with Y chromosome mosaicism. Aim to understand the diagnosis of TS and improve the diagnosis and treatment of HCG-secreting tumors.Methods: The data of clinical diagnosis and treatment of this patient were summarized, and the literatures were reviewed.<p ...

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of GH in improving FAH in ISS children in a multicenter study.Methods: A real-world observation was carried out. Children with ISS in seven hospitals in China were enrolled. The height gain standard deviation score and the height gain over the target height were evaluated.Results: There were 344 ISS patients (217 boys and 127 girls). The baseline a...
