Objective: Congenital hypothyroidism; currently, it is one of the most common causes of preventable mental retardation in children. Thyroid dysgenesis, thyroid hormone production and efficacy disorders or temporary hypothyroidism can be seen with the tables. In this study; The aim of this study was to evaluate the etiology and prognosis of congenital hypothyroid patients guided by national screening and neonatal centers. In this way; Our aim is to produce the ...

Background: Familial central diabetes insipidus (DI), usually an autosomal dominant disorder, is caused by mutations in arginine vasopressin–neurophysin II (AVP-NPII) gene that leads to aberrant preprohormone processing and gradual destruction of AVP-secreting cells.Objective and hypotheses: To determine clinical and molecular characteristics of patients with familial central DI from two different families.Method: The diagnosi...

Introduction: Automated insulin delivery systems provide significant improvement in the time in range(TIR) centered diabetes care. This study analyzes the real-word performance of Minimed 780G™system-Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop(AHCL) in children from a single center.Methods: Of the 93 children started to use AHCL between January 2021 and April 2022, 64 whose data could be accessed were included. 3,6,9 and 12 month-...

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...

Background: Premature thelarche is the isolated breast development in girls <8 years of age unaccompanied by other signs of puberty including advanced bone age or growth spurt. The GnRH stimulation test is used to distinguish between premature thelarche and central precocious puberty.Objective and hypotheses: We studied accuracy of the gonadotropin responses to GnRH stimulation in predicting pubertal progression in children diagnosed with premature t...

Background: H syndrome (OMIM #602783) is an autosomal recessive syndrome resulted from mutations in the SLC29A3 gene, encoding hENT3 protein. Characteristic findings are cutaneous hyperpigmentation, hypertrichosis, hepatosplenomegaly, hypogonadism, hyperglycemia/diabetes mellitus, cardiac anomalies, hallux valgus and short stature. Herein we report a girl with multiple endocrinopathies due to H syndrome.Case: Ten year and 5 month old girl was referred be...

Objective: This study aims to reveal clinical, hormonal and ultrasound imaging features of patients treated with leuprolide acetate for diagnosis of precoccious puberty.Design: Retrospective analysis of patients with a diagnosis of central precoccious puberty and treated with leuprolide acetate between January 2008 and January 2013.Patients: 81 girls and two boys with early signs of puberty.Results: There was...

Background: A 5 years and 10 months boy presented with pubic hair, recent penile growth, aggressive behaviour and rapid growth of height. Antenatal, perinatal, and developmental history was unremarkable. There was no family history of precocious puberty. His height and weight were 128 cm (2.24 S.D.) and 25 kg (1.55 S.D.) respectively. Vital signs were normal. He was Tanner 2 for pubic hair and his stretched penis length was 11 cm, right testis vol...
