The pathological low stature is considered to be one that does not conform to normality (<2 SDS), that with a pathological growth rate. An obvious element is the conditioning that can generate in their professional outings, both in public and private activity. This seems to be evident in the female sex than in the male sex. The health system considers the treatment (with Ghrh) in pathological size without considering sexual dimorphism.Goals: To study...

Background: The diagnosis of increasingly serious in the early years of life obesity has experienced a large epidemiological increased worldwide in recent decades, and especially in our country and in some groups. Many of the metabolic complications (SM) and cardiovascular have their origins in childhood and are closely related to the presence of insulin resistance (IR), which associated complications: hepatic steatosis, endothelial dysfunction, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS...

Background: In recent years, vitamin D is attracting increasing interest due to the resurgence of vitamin D deficiency and rickets in developed countries, identifying their extraesqueletics actions and greater understanding of its many benefits. Vitamin D deficiency in children prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in certain regions described up to 80%, especially at high latitudes (above 37) and some breeds.Objective and hypotheses: To study the degree of...

Background: Several drugs and pharmaceutical formulations not sold in our country for different reasons: economic, market requirements or the prevalence of the disease. Like occur in so-called orphan treatments, diabetes mellitus (DM) children may be deprived of pharmaceutical presentations for its lower numerical prevalence vs the number of adult patients affections DMtipo2 One of the problems that young children face DM1 is its high sensitivity to insulin. Since May 2014 mar...

Background: 1 000 million people worldwide presenting vitamin D deficiency in children prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in certain regions described up to 80%, especially at high latitudes (above 37). Has been postulated role of vitamin D in the immune system and in clinical variability DM1.Objective and hypotheses: To study the degree of deficit VITD in our population (Location: 42° 51’north latitude 2° 41’west longitude) with DM1 ...

Background: There is a small proportion of children born SGA without postnatal catch-up growth who are presented with persistent short stature, low BMI, and decreased lean body mass (LBM). Data on body composition are rarely reported in the literature. Our study addresses the question whether human recombinant GH treatment could affect body composition in these SGA children or not.Design: We included 58 SGA children (n=20 females) with SGA (birt...

Objective: To study how basal metabolism influences the somatometric evolution of the child and adolescent population with obesity in a pediatric endocrinology clinic; multichannel impedance study, TANITA BF 430.Results: 100 randomly selected patients from a database with 1400 records were studied. Most of the patients who come to these consultations for obesity are girls, between 8 and 11 years old. The group of boys at...

Background: GH revolutionised treatment of children with GH deficiency, conditioning an improvement in height outcome but also an increase of lean body mass and reduction of fat mass.Objective and hypotheses: The authors aimed to evaluate the growth and weight response in children with GH deficiency and identify potential factors affecting the outcome of these patients.Method: The growth and weight data of 58 children (33 boys and ...

Research Aim: Diabetes type 1 can negatively influence testicular function and fertility but the pathomechanisms on the testicular level remain to be elucidated. Therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate effects of diabetes mellitus type 1 disease on testicular function.Material and Methods: BB/OKL rats developed type 1 diabetes during adolescence. Rats were treated with different Insulin implants to achieve suffic...

Objectives: Previous studies have described impaired growth in HIV-infected children. Many of them showed weight and height improve after ART initiation Most series include children from resource limited settings in which malnutrition is frequent and treatment is not fully available. We aim to characterize long-term growth in a cohort of HIV-infected children after ART initiation and to identify determinant factors.Methods</stron...
