Background: Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare insulin-requiring form of diabetes, diagnosed in the first six months of life. Unlike type 1 diabetes mellitus, it is caused by the mutation genes involved in the development and secretory function of the pancreas. ABCC8 gene mutation, resulting in both transient and permanent NDM, increases the sensitivity to the stimulatory actions of ADP, so it remain the potassium channel open and prevent insulin release. Sulfonylurea ...

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: Neonatal diabetes may be defined as hyperglycemia diagnosed within the first 6 months of life which is permanent neonatal diabetes or transient neonatal diabetes. They can result from some gene mutations such as KCNJ11, ABCC8, INS, GCK, … In there, the most common cause of neonatal diabetes mellitus is associated with activating mutations in the KCNJ11 gene, which encodes Kir6.2-a subunit of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) of the β cell and AB...

Objective: To investigate response to growth hormone (GH) treatment for idiopathic GH deficient (GHD) and family short stature (FSS) and Small for Gestational Age (SGA) patients or Combined group.Design: GHD, FSS, SGA and Combined group patients who were currently receiving GH and had completed treatment with treatment duration of more than 6 months (from 8/2019 to 5/2021) at International Vinmec Central Park hospital. M...

Background: Precocious puberty is defined by the development of secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 8 in girls and before the age of 9 in boys. if not diagnosed and treated at an early stage, precocious puberty can compromise final adult height and trigger psychological disturbances. Gonadotropin- releasing hormone analogs (GnRHa) contributes to achievement of target final height by reducing the acceleration of bone maturation.<p class="abst...

Immune dysregulation-polyendocrinopathy-enteropathy-X-linked syndrome (IPEX) is caused by mutations in the gene that encode for the transcription factor FOXP3. IPEX is a rare, often fatal disease. However, several cases present later onset, mild forms or less common clinical manifestations. We report a case who had de novo mutation of FOXP3 causing neonatal diabetes but without other features of IPEX syndrome. An 8 days old male, late preterm at 36 weeks, low birthweight 2200g...

Background: Central Precocious Puberty (CPP) may be lead to consequences such as limitation adult stature, sexual abuse, and emotional distress. GnRH agonist therapy in patients with CPP has been demonstrated in increasing adult height and improving emotional distress in puberty stage.Objective: Evaluating the efficacy of treatment in patients with central precocious puberty after one year in Children Hospital 2, Vietnam in 7 years, from 01/2017 to 12/20...

Vosoritide is a C-type Natriuretic Peptide (CNP) analogue therapy for treatment of achondroplasia. Vosoritide acts on growth plate chondrocytes through the Natriuretic Peptide Receptor-B to stimulate increased endochondral bone growth, leading to increased growth velocity in treated subjects. In Phase II clinical studies, subject blood and urine samples were analyzed to monitor putative bone growth biomarkers including cross-linked C-terminal telopeptides of collagen II (CTxII...

Background: Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare (1:300 000–400 000 newborns) but potentially devastating metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia combined with low levels of insulin. Two main groups have been recognized on clinical grounds, transient NDM (TNDM) and permanent NDM (PNDM).Objective and hypotheses: To describe clinical features and laboratory manifestations of patient with NDM and evaluate outcome of management.<p cl...

Background: Neonatal diabetes is a rare disorder with an incidence of between 1 in 215 000–500 000 live births with approximately 50% having permanent neonatal diabetes (PNDM). Insulin gene (INS) mutations have recently been described as a cause of PNDM.Objective and hypotheses: To describe clinical features and laboratory manifestations of patient with PNDM due to INS gene mutation and evaluate outcome of management....
