Introduction: Post-marketing surveillance registries provided extensive information about the safety and efficacy of daily growth hormone (GH) therapy during treatment. With the availability of novel long-acting GH (LAGH) therapies, it is important to determine whether the novel molecules or the different pattern of GH exposure lead to changes in the efficacy and safety profile. Therefore, new surveillance registries of LAGH are warranted.<p class="abstext...

Age and Gender-Specific Reference Data for High-Resolution Magnetic Resonance Based Musculoskeletal Parameters in Healthy Children and Young People

Elsharkasi Huda M. , Chen ¹Suet C. , Steell Lewis , Joseph Shuko , Abdalrahman Naiemh , Johnston Blair , Foster John E. , Wong Sze C. , Ahmed S. Faisal

Background: The need to understand the relationship between bone, muscle, and fat within the bone-muscle unit has recently gained great prominence. Although high resolution (HR) MRI is a non-invasive imaging modality that can provide this information, there is limited expertise in children and young people.Objectives: To establish MRI-based normative data for bone, bone marrow adiposity and muscle adiposity in children a...

Background: Noonan syndrome (NS) is a common autosomal dominant/recessive disorder. No large-scale study has been conducted on NS in China, which is the most populous country in the world.Methods: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to identify pathogenic variants in patients that exhibited NS-related phenotypes. We assessed the facial features and clinical manifestations of patients with pathogenic or likely patho...

Background: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare dominant disorder of transcriptional regulation with a complex phenotype including cranio-facial dysmorphism, intellectual disability, developmental delay, hypotonia, failure to thrive, short stature and variable cardiac and renal anomalies. Mutations in either KMT2D or KDM6A cause KS. While the phenotype of KS has been reported in many ethnicities, little is known about the phenotypic spectrum of KS...

Clinical and Molecular Genetic Characterizations of Five Patients Harboring Mutations in the GNAS Gene: A Case Series and Literature Review

Li Xin , Chang Guoying , Wang Yirou , Xu Yufei , Li Guoqiang , Li Xin , Li Juan , Ding Yu , Chen Yao , Wang jian , Wang Xiumin

Objective: Inactivating mutations in the gene encoding the alpha-subunit of Gs (GNAS) gene, which consists of exons 1-13 and encodes the alpha-subunit of the stimulatory G protein (Gsa), are associated with several clinical syndromes, including pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP), pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP), and progressive osseous heteroplasia (POH).Method: We documented patient clinical characteristics a...

Background: The pathophysiology of the increased fracture risk in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) remains unclear.Objectives: Perform multimodality assessment to determine the effects of T1DM on bone health and fractures.Methods: Thirty-two children with T1DM at a median (range) age of 13.7 years (10.4, 16.7), and median HbA1c 65mmol/mol (27,100) were recruited. Serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and c-terminal telopeptide type ...

Introduction: Despite improved therapy measures since 2014 the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Swiss adolescence stabilized on 19%. Particular challenges are lack of adherence to therapy in youth who are in difficult life situations or live further from specified centres. Therefore it is essential to find simple and novel therapeutic approaches. But although the number of digital based health information systems increases steadily, the effectiveness in reaching long te...

Objective: We assessed whether beta-cell function progressively decreases over time with greater type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) duration using a mixed-meal tolerance test (MMTT). We also assessed simpler and more practical surrogate parameters for clinical use.Methods: We studied 57 children and adolescents with T1DM in Hangzhou (China), mean age at diagnosis was 8.3 years (range 2.3 to 15.3 years), with an average diabetes duration of 2.5 years (range ...

Background and aim: Metformin is widely used in Type 2 diabetes, with increasing reports of a potential bone protective role. We investigated the role of AMPK in mediating the effects of metformin on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation to either osteoblasts or adipocytes.Methods: Confluent mouse MSCs (C3H10T1/2), wild type (WT) and AMPK knockout (KO) mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) were treated with metformin(500 μM), AMPK-activator A769662(...
