Background: Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is produced by small growing ovarian follicles. It inhibits both FSH induced maturation of follicles as well as aromatase activity. Genetic variation of AMH signalling is associated with age at menopause and circulating oestradiol levels, i.e. AMH rs10407022 T>G (intragenic) and AMHR2 rs11170547 C>T (putative enhancer).Objective and hypotheses: This present study aims to investigate ...

Introduction: Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) is an uncommon, highly heterogeneous entity of multifactorial etiology, consisting in the association of 2 or more of the following characteristics: ophthalmological abnormalities [most frequently optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH)], midline brain abnormalities [such as aplasia/hypoplasia of the septum pellucidum (SP) and/or corpus callosum (CC)] and variable degree of hypotalamo-pituitary insufficiency (HPI)<p class="ab...

The majority of patients with Variations of Sex Development (VSD) lack a genetic diagnosis. Patients that are born with atypical chromosomal, gonadal, or phenotypical sex, present a wide spectrum of phenotypes that are often associated with ambiguous genitalia, infertility as well as increased susceptibility to testicular or ovarian cancer. Many different genetic causes of VSD have been reported [2], but for more than 50% [3] of all VSD patients, the molecular cause of their c...

It is known that a larger number of blood glucose control, glycemic control of patients with type 1 Dm suffers improvement. Likewise, the presence of hypoglycaemias maintained, especially at night and in school-age patients, could have a significant influence on neurological aspects such as night rest, learning and memory. Improved technology has id allowed or development of control devices interstitial glucose, both blinded (retrospective) as erta abi (real time). The free FR...

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 ...

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...
