Determinants of bone mineral density in healthy term-born children at age 6 months

Dorrepaal Demi , van Beijsterveldt Inge , de Fluiter Kirsten , Hokken Anita

Background and aims: Insight into which determinants associate with bone mineral density (BMD) is needed for targeted therapy in children with a low BMD for chronological age but also for preventive treatment on population level. Currently, studies investigating determinants of BMD in children aged <4 years are scarce. The primary aim of our study was to assess which determinants associate with BMD total body less head (BMDTBLH) at around age 6 m...

Predictive factors of transient congenital hypothyroidism: a retrospective study

Abad Lorna , de Leon Angela , Bon Maceda Ebner

Introduction: The prevalence of transient congenital hypothyroidism (TCH) in the Philippines has not been reported in a large-scale study. The diagnosis of TCH remains difficult due to its numerous possible etiologies. Identifying its predictive factors may aid in earlier diagnosis and decreased risk of overtreatment. This study aim ed to determine the predictive factors for TCH in children with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) detected by newborn screening (NBS...

Clinical and Molecular Characterization of One Nr5a1 Gene Mutation Found in a Patient WITH 46, XY DSD

Vela Amaya , Lapiscina Idoia Martinez De , Nanclares Gustavo Perez De , Amaia Rodriguez , Rica Itxaso , Castano Luis , Grau Gema

Introduction: Steroidogenic factor-1 (SF1), encoded by the NR5A1 gene, regulates several genes involved in male sexual determination, such as SOX9 and AMH, cholesterol mobilization and synthesis of a number of steroidogenic enzymes, like 3βHSD, and androgen biosynthesis, like INSL3. Mutations in NR5A1 have been associated to a broad phenotypic spectrum in 46, XY subjects, including pure gonadal dysgenesis, infertility, anorchia...

Brain Structure, Executive Function and Appetitive Traits in Adolescent Obesity

Jan de Groot Cornelis , van den Akker Erica , Rings Edmond , Delemarre-van de Waal Henriette , van der Grond Jeroen

Background: Children with obesity show differences in brain structure, executive function and appetitive traits when compared to lean peers. Results of imaging studies, however, have been contradictory.Objective and hypotheses: To investigate whether childhood obesity is associated with differences in brain structure and whether differences associate with executive function and appetitive traits.Method: A cross-sectional case-contr...

Case Report on Hyperinsulinism/hyperammonaemia Syndrome: An Easily Treatable Cause of Postprandial Hypoglycaemia

Seneviratne Sumudu , Jayatunge Tharanga , Atapattu Navoda , De Silva K. S. H. , Wickramasinghe V. P. , De Silva Harendra

Background: Hyperinsulinism/hyperammonaemia (HI/HA) syndrome is associated with postprandial hypoglycaemia and mild hyperammonemia. There is increased insulin release following protein ingestion, which is amenable to diaxozide therapy. While developmental delay and normoglycaemic seizures can also occur, hepatomegaly has not been reported. We report a child with HI/HA and hepatomegaly, mild learning difficulty and obesity, who was initially mistaken to have glycogen storage di...

Nutritional Status and Respiratory Function in Patients Affected by Cystic Fibrosis and Glucose Metabolism Derangements after 4 Years of Insulin Therapy with Glargine

Mozzillo Enza , Raia Valeria , Fattorusso Valentina , Cerrato Carla , De Nitto Elena , De Gregorio Fabiola , Sepe Angela , Valerio Giuliana , Franzese Adriana

Background: The glucose metabolism derangements (GMD) can have an important impact on nutritional status and respiratory function in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).Objective and hypotheses: The aim of our study is to evaluate the effects of 4 years of glargine therapy in patients affected by CF and GMD.Method: All CF patients attended to the Center of Cystic Fibrosis of our department were screened by oral glucose tolerance tes...

Can We Predict the Risk of Obesity?

de Arriba Antonio , Pascual Javier , de Francisco Mario , Ferrer Marta , Martinez Ignacio , Labarta Jose Ignacio , Ferrandez Angel

Background: Recognizing the risk of developing obesity is essential to implement preventive measures to avoid the increasing prevalence of obesity in adulthood.Objective: To evaluate predictive factors that may be associated with overweight and obesity in early adulthood.Method: A regression analysis of different variables of body composition in a normal population have been done. The sample consisted of 122 boys and 120 girls foll...

Opioid-Induced Endocrinopathy in a Toddler with Chronic Codeine Intoxication

Van Aken Sara , Van Der Straaten Saskia , De Waele Kathleen , Cools Martine , Craen Margarita , De Schepper Jean

Background: Several studies in adults have provided evidence for opioid-induced hypofunction of the hypothalamo-pituitary–adrenal and GH–IGF1 axis after chronic (oral and intrathecal) administration. This so-called opioid endocrinopathy has not been reported in children.Objective and hypotheses: We report the occurrence of delayed growth with low serum IGF1 levels and recurrent hypoglycemia due to central hypocorticism in a toddler after a pres...

Novel NR5A1 Gene Mutations Associated with 46,XY Disorders of Sex Development

Fabbri Helena , de Andrade Juliana Gabriel Ribeiro , Maciel-Guerra Andrea Trevas , Guerra-Junior Gil , de Mello Maricilda Palandi

Background: Disorders of sex development (DSD) characterize incomplete or disorganized genital or gonadal development. One in 4500 births requires genetic and endocrine studies due to abnormal external genitalia or gonadal dysgenesis and only 50% of the cases receive a definitive diagnosis. There are several genes that participate in both sex determination and differentiation processes. Mutations in NR5A1 gene, which encoding SF1, a transcription factor, are responsib...

Elastargene 3C Helps to Improve HbA1c in Children and Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Using Insulin Pump Therapy

Scaramuzza Andrea , Ferrari Matteo , Macedoni Maddalena , De Angelis Laura , Redaelli Francesca , De Palma Alessandra , Zuccotti Gian Vincenzo

Background: Elastargene 3C (E3C) is a cream specifically designed to improve lipoatrophy in patients with diabetes. It is made by many ingredients, among whom are elastin, arnica, collagen, caffeine, and L-carnitine.Objective and hypotheses: We started a 6-month, double-blind, randomized trial to test the efficacy of E3C in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using insulin pump (CSII), in whom infusion set usually left little withe scars.<...
