Objective: Evaluation the clinical efficacy of autologous hematopoietie stem cell transplantation and traditional insulin therapy.Methods: This is a case–control study. The subject investigated were diagnosed primary childhood type 1 diabetes in Beijing Children’s Hospital Endocrinology Centre, and there are 14 cases did the immune intervention combined with autologous hematopoietie stem cell transplantation in other hospital during the first 3...

Objective: We assessed in a retrospective unicenter study the effect on menstrual regularity of early menarche and treatment with GnRH analogs (GnRHa) in central precocious puberty (CPP) or early and fast puberty (EFP) girls.Methods: Six hundred and ten healthy girls were interviewed and their menarche age and menstrual interval were recorded. One hundred and sixty-nine CPP or EFP girls who were treated with GnRHa were fellowed up, and their menarche age...

Objective: We assessed in a retrospective unicenter study the effect on BMI of treatment with GnRH analogs (GnRHa) in central precocious puberty (CPP) or early and fast puberty (EFP) girls.Methods: The BMI of 318 girls (227 CPP and 91 EFP) who treated with GnRHa alone were analyzed. Among them 89 were followed up to their final adult hight (FAH).Results: Before GnRHa treatment started, the girls with CPP and EFP had a mean BMI SDS ...

Background: Acquired QT prolongation can be caused by electrolyte abnormality, myocarditis, cerebrovascular disease, drug intoxication and hormonal disorders such as hypopituitarism, hypothyroidism, and adrenal insufficiency.Case presentation: We describe a 14-year-old boy with hypopituitarism after trans-sphenoidal surgery (TSS) due to suprasellar mass who manifested bradycardia and QT prolongation on electrocardiogram. This subject complained of blurre...

Introduction: Turner syndrome (TS) is caused by monosomy or structural abnormalities of the X chromosome, with a prevalence of out 1/2500 females live birth. Most important clinical features of TS are short stature and gonadal failure. Approximately one third of girls with TS may undergo spontaneous puberty. Here we report a case of a variant TS with breast development.Case report: A 9-year-old girl was referred to our paediatric endocrinology outpatient...

Gorham-Stout disease(GSD), also known as vanishing bone disease is an extremely rare skeletal disorder characterized by idiopathic intraosseous proliferation of lymphatic vascular structures resulting in progressive resorption of bone. Herein, we report a case of a 4-year-old girl with GSD treated with the combination treatment with bisphosphonate, sirolimus, and atenolol. A 4-year-old girl presented with prolonged back pain for 2 weeks. The thoracolumbar spine radiography rev...

Combined pituitary function test is a dynamic function test used to evaluate the anterior pituitary gland in patients suspected with hypopituitarism. The test comprises insulin challenge test where intravenous insulin injection in order to induce symptomatic hypoglycemia (serum blood glucose <40mg/dL). Insufficient increase in growth hormone and cortisol after the stimulation confirms the diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency and/or adrenal function insufficiency. However,...

Background: Despite the importance of hypercholesterolemia in children, it is overlooked, and there are currently few metabolomics-based approaches available to understand its molecular mechanisms.Methods: Children from a birth cohort had their cholesterol levels measured with the aim of identifying the metabolites for the molecular biological pathways of childhood hypercholesterolemia. One hundred and twenty-five childr...

Introduction / aim: Neonatal diabetes owned to potassium channel mutation can be successfully treated by sulfonylureas (SU). No study has reported SU efficiency according to the genotype.Method: Review of literature conducted in accordance with the control criteria of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Search engine used: PubMed and the Cochrane Library database. Selection of clinical report, case reviews and met...

Background: Neonatal diabetes is a rare pathology occurring in around one in every 200 000–400 000 live births. The most common cause of permanent neonatal diabetes (PNDM) is heterozygous activating mutations in the KCNJ11 gene encoding the pore-forming Kir6.2 subunit of the pancreatic β cell KATP channel.Objective and hypotheses: To determine the dynamic of carbohydrate metabolism in family transferred from insulin to sulphonylureas (...
