Objectives: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is mostly considered X chromosome abnormalities in child. Few of POI cases are associated with autosomal abnormalities. This study was to identify new genes involved POI in three girls.Methods: Three girls who came to the hospital because of no menstruation were investigated. They were 14, 15, and 14 years old. They did not find any breast tissue in their physical examination. Clinical data, sex hormones,...

Congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (CLAH) is the most severe and extremely rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The typical features include 46, XY disorder of sex development (DSD), early-onset adrenal crisis and enlarged adrenal with fatty accumulation. We reported a case of congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (CLAH) caused by steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STAR) gene mutation. The patient had typical early-onset adrenal crisis at the age of 2 mon...

Objectives: To summarize the clinical manifestations of a patient of 46,XY partial gonadal dysgenesis (PGD) accompanied by neuropathy. This is the first reported case of DHH mutation from China.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the case and summarized the clinical history, physical examinations, laboratory and genetics tests, electromyography, ultrasound, surgical exploration and histopathology results.Results: The 14.3-year-old...

Background: Survivors of childhood brain tumors (SCBT) are an emerging group that have premature mortality and morbidities that can negatively impact their quality of life and lifespan. Cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes are important causes of premature mortality in survivors, yet one of the major determinants of cardiometabolic risk i.e. visceral adiposity has not been determined in this group.Objective and hypotheses: This study is comparing...

Objective: Evaluation the clinical efficacy of autologous hematopoietie stem cell transplantation and traditional insulin therapy.Methods: This is a case–control study. The subject investigated were diagnosed primary childhood type 1 diabetes in Beijing Children’s Hospital Endocrinology Centre, and there are 14 cases did the immune intervention combined with autologous hematopoietie stem cell transplantation in other hospital during the first 3...

Background: It remains unclear whether specimen pH can influence urinary LH and FSH assayed by immunochemiluminometric assays (ICMA).Objective and hypotheses: To investigate the effect of specimen pH on urinary LH and FSH assayed by ICMA.Method: The first morning-voided urine were collected and divided into 11 samples (each 100 ml). The urine pH was determined with a pH meter. Hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide were added to al...

Background: Adolescent hyperandrogenemia is prophase of polycystic ovary syndrome. Obesity is one important cause of hyperandrogenemia. Whether hyperandrogenemia has happened in obese children is need to explore.Aims and objectives: To investigate the levels of insulin and androgens in obese children, analysis the correlation between insulin resistance and androgens, and comparison on the differences of androgens levels between obese boys and girls, and ...

Objective Summarizing and analysing the clinical characteristics of 193 patients with McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) in China to improve the understanding of MAS for early detection, diagnosis and management. Methods All MAS-themed case-report or case-series studies published by the Chinese between January 1990 and November 2022 were retrieved from the Wanfang Full Text, CNKI, China Science and Technology Journal, PubMed and Embase databases, and clinical data were collected. ...

It has been established that a random growth hormone (rGH) level can be obtained and is useful within the first 28 days of life for establishing a diagnosis of congenital growth hormone deficiency (cGHD). However, it remains unclear if weight-for-length (WfL), a surrogate for adiposity, impacts these levels, similar to how body mass index in older subjects impacts peak growth hormone levels derived from provocation testing. The objective of this study is to determine the impac...

Aim: Aromatase inhibitors are widely used in clinical practice and are currently employed in the treatment of adolescents with short stature. However, the impact of these inhibitors on the reproductive function in male adolescents remains unclear.Methods: The data of patient with short stature who had completed aromatase inhibition therapy between 2015 and 2022 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Scho...
