Object: To raise the awareness of clinical manifestations about vasculitis-related moyamoya syndrome by summarizing the clinical characteristics of a girl with central precocious puberty, vasculitis-related moyamoya syndrome and reviewing the literature. Method: We carried on the review analysis to the patient with central precocious puberty, vasculitis-related moyamoya syndrome and reviewed the literature. Result: The bilateral breast development was the prim...

Objective: To summarize the diagnosis and treatment of a rare 46XY DSD cause: Denys-Drash syndrome.Methods: To summarize the clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, diagnosis and treatment of a rare 46XY DSD cause presenting with hemolytic uremic syndrome: Denys-Drash syndrome (WT1 mutation).Results: Female, 2 years and 4 months, were admitted to the hospital at 2018-11-7 becaus...

Background: Most children with idiopathic short stature (ISS) have a delayed bone age (BA). ISS with advanced BA is far less common. We studied three families with autosomal dominant short stature, unexplained BA acceleration, and premature growth cessation.Objective and hypotheses: To identify the genetic cause of this condition and describe its clinical spectrum.Method: Whole exome sequencing was performed in selected individuals...

Keywords: Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders, recombinant human Growth Hormone treatment, Prader–Willi syndrome, Toddlers.Background: Recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy is beneficial for children with Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS) in improving short stature and metabolism, but the effect of early rhGH treatment on respiratory and sleep parameters for the PWS children under three years old remains el...

Objective: To establish INS-1 cell iron overload model, and study the effect on iron overload, proliferation, insulin secretion, mitochondria defect and oxidative stress change.Methods: INS-1 cells were cultured with different concentrations (0 as control and 5, 10, 20, 40, 80,160,320µmol/L respectively) of ferric ammonium citrate (FAC). Labile iron pool (LIP) were calculated by detecting calcein-AM fluorescence ...

Objective: To know more about the etiology and mechanism of antibody-negative diabetes, screening MODY pathogenicity genes and deepening understanding of islet autoantibody-negative diabetes, so as to individualized precision treatment.Methods: A total of 31 subjects with diabetes who had negative islet autoantibodies and C-peptide ≥0.3 ng/ml were collected. Another group was the type 1 diabetes control group, After informed consent obtained patien...

Objective: To investigate the clinical features and genetic characteristics of HRAS-associated Costello Syndrome.Method: Characteristics of clinical data and gene mutation of two cases Costello Syndrome in XX hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The related literature was searched by using search terms ‘HRAS’ or ‘Costello Syndrome’.Result: Both patients were presented with mental retardation, growth retardati...

Objective: To assess the effects and safety of recombinant human GH (rhGH) in GH deficient (GHD) children with Rathke cyst.Methods: The clinical data of 12 GHD children aged from 5–12 years old, whose radiologic diagnosis showed Rathke cyst during Jan 2010–Dec 2012 in our hospital, were analyzed retrospectively. rhGH was given subcutaneously to each enrolled child with a night dose of 0.1 IU/kg six to seven times a week for 12–30 months. T...

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of recombinant human GH (rhGH) combined with low-dose stanozolol on the growth and final adult height (FAH) of girls with Turner syndrome (TS).Method: A total of 47 girls with TS were treated with rhGH (47.6–52.4 μg/kg per day) and low-dose stanozolol (20–35 μg/kg per day), starting at a mean age of 12.57±1.96 year. The control group consisted of 26 girls with TS,...

Background: Data on prevalence and phenotypic distribution of dyslipidaemia in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is scarce. Studies have shown that lipid abnormality tracks from childhood to adulthood and contributes to atherosclerotic process, therefore initial assessment and follow-up is essential.Aims: To study the prevalence and phenotypic distribution of dyslipidaemia in children with T1D and compare with type 2 diabetes (T2D).<p class="abstex...
