Body Mass Index (BMI) in Patients with Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) at Diagnosis, One Year and Two Years After Treatment with Growth Hormone (GH)

Schmitt-Lobe Maria Claudia , Costa Debora Regina Andrade Dalla , Ueno Rafael Koji Yoshimatsu

Introduction: Growth velocity is reduced in patients with GH deficiency and this may result in an increase in Body Mass Index (BMI). Treatment performed with Growth Hormone (GH) while accelerating growth velocity, might reduce BMI. The objective of this study was to evaluate BMI in patients with GHD at diagnosis, 1 y and 2 y after started treatment with GH and to compare if there is difference between the BMI of the patients with and without pituitary abnormalities.<p clas...

The relationship between the amount of ghrelin-positive cells in the stomach and the concentration of ghrelin and anti-ghrelin antibodies in the blood in short stature children, with additional analysis of the impact of H. pylori infection.

Introduction: The growth process in children depends on GH/IGF-1. Ghrelin is stimulator of GH synthesis. Ghrelin also stimulates the orexigenic center peptides responsible for appetite. It is synthesized in the stomach, thus its secretion may be alter by gastrointestinal tract deseases. Recently, high titers of antibodies against some neuropeptides (including anti-ghrelin) have been found in indyviduals with certain microflora components, e.g. Helicobacter pyl...

Increase in Sclerostin After Rapid Weight Loss in Children

Birkebaek Niels H , Frystyk Jan , Lange Aksel , Holland-Fischer Peter , Kristensen Kurt , Rittig Soren , Vilstrup Henrik , Henning Gronbaek

Background: Sclerostin is secreted by the osteocyte and inhibits bone formation by osteoblasts and is thus a negative regulator of bone formation. In adults, sclerostin levels increase after weight loss, which may be prevented by exercise training. The effect of weight loss on sclerostin in children is unknown.Objective and hypotheses: To compare sclerostin levels in children before and after a 10 weeks stay at a weight loss camp (WLC).<p class="abst...

Conservative Treatment Allows Substantial Improvement of Neonatal Cushing Syndrome in McCune Albright Syndrome, a 2 Year Follow-up

van Nieuwaal Nancy HG , Houwen Roderick H J , van der Grinten Hedi L Claahsen , Stuart Annemarie A Verrijn

Background: McCune Albright syndrome (MAS) is defined by the classic triad of precocious puberty, fibrous dysplasia of bone and café au lait skin pigmentation. However, the clinical spectrum is often more variable due to mosaic distribution of the postzygotic GNAS-mutation. Hypercortisolism occurs in a minority (5%) of patients. It is most frequently caused by nodular adrenal hyperplasia and can be life-threatening. Decisions on whether clinical management should be conse...

New International Guidelines on Turner Syndrome

Gravholt Claus H.

Turner syndrome (TS) affects 25-50 per 100,000 females and can involve multiple organs through all stages of life, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach to care. Numerous important advances have been noted during recent years. These advances cover all specialty fields involved in the care of girls and women with TS. This new international guideline is based on an international effort with emphasis on 1) diagnostic and genetic issues, 2) growth and development during child...

The Rationale and Potential Role of Surgery in the Treatment of Adolescent Diabetes

Inge Thomas H

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic and disabling disease affecting increasing numbers of adolescents. Conventional medical therapy presents unique challenges and seldom stalls progression.Objective and hypotheses: The objective of this presentation is to discuss the findings of contemporary, controlled, and prospective trials of surgical therapy for adult T2DM, which demonstrate dramatic early glycemic control, improvement in cardio...

Turner syndrome and hormone replacement therapy

Gravholt Claus H. ,

Turner syndrome is a condition in females missing a sex chromosome (45,X) or parts of the second sex chromosome. It is considered a rare condition and associated with a range of characteristics, such as short stature, ovarian dysgenesis, delayed puberty and infertility, congenital malformations of the heart, endocrine disorders, including a range of autoimmune conditions and type 2 diabetes. Morbidity and mortality is clearly increased compared with the background population a...

Background/Aims: 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis (GD) is classified as complete (CGD) or partial (PGD) depending on gonadal morphology and function. In contrast to the typical female external genitalia in CGD, the phenotype of PGD is variable depending on androgen production. A diagnosis of PGD is based on clinical/biochemical features, gonadal histology and genetic findings. The aim of this study is to characterise these features, particularly histological, in a lar...
