Management of MEN1 in Children and Adolescents

Luisa Brandi Maria ,

Approximately 12% to 17% of MEN1 patients are diagnosed with the disease in the first two decades of life. Clinical evident disease appears uncommon before adolescence, with consensus guidelines currently recommending phenotype screening of confirmed MEN1 carriers commencing by age 5 years. A recent publication reviewed the recent literature in this area, that demonstrates that mortality is rare in children and young adults, whereas morbidity is not uncommon for various endocr...

Hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia as a MEHMO syndrome component: a case report

Gubaeva Diliara , Melikyan Maria ,

Introduction: MEHMO syndrome (mental retardation, epileptic seizures, hypogenitalism, microcephaly, and obesity) is a rare X-linked disorder causes by EIF2S3 gene mutations. This gene encodes a key factor for integrated stress response and initiation of protein synthesis. Since many hormones are proteins or peptides by nature, some of the reported cases of MEHMO syndrome include endocrine disorders: hypopituitarism (hypogonadism, growth hormone defici...

Background: Rare metabolic bone diseases (RMBD) are at the crossways of Endocrinology, Nephrology, Orthopaedic surgery and Rheumatology. Most of RMBD lead to short stature, bone pain, tooth anomalies, leg deformities, bone fragility and disability of variable importance. The organization of care varies immensely amongst European countries. Several European networks dedicated to RMBD already exist, supported by societies such as ESPE, ECTS or research grants, albeit their focus...

National multi-center study of reevaluation of thyroid function in premature infants of less than 32 weeks of gestation and/or less than 1500g admitted to neonatal units

Preterm and low birth weight(LBW) newborns are at risk of thyroid dysfunction during a critical period for neurodevelpment and this dysfunction can be missed in congenital hypothyroidism screening program(CHSP). Consequently, reassessment of thyroid function has been promoted in neonatal units, added to CHSP.Objectives: To evaluate prevalence and risk factors of thyroid dysfunction in≤32weeksGA and/or 1500g newborn, and compare differ...

Unusual Congenital Hyperinsulinism Case in a Patient with a Pathogenic GCK Mutation

Gubaeva Diliara , Kareva Maria , Milovanova Natalia , Tiulpakov Anatoly , Melikyan Maria

Dominant activating mutations in GCK gene are known to be the cause of congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). Patients with GCK mutations can have a wide range of clinical presentations, varying from asymptomatic adult onset hypoglycemia to medically unresponsive severe neonatal onset HI. Overall, 5 of 214 (2.3%) patients diagnosed with HI over the last 10 years in Russia were found to carry pathogenic variants of GCK gene. Only 2 of these 5 patients ...

Clinical characteristics of Congenital Hyperinsulinism Caused by Dominant KCNJ11/ABCC8 Mutations

Melikyan Maria , Gubaeva Diliara , Tyulpakov Anatoliy , Kareva Maria

Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is the most common cause of hypoglycemia in children and infants. It is characterized by a dysregulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and mostly associated with recessive inactivating mutations in the β-cell ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel genes – KCNJ11 and ABCC8. Dominantly inherited mutations in these genes are usually associated with mild forms of diazoxide responsive HI. Rec...

Erythropoietin and Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor Levels in Growth Hormone Deficient Children after 1 Year of Growth Hormone Therapy

Pankratova Maria , Vorontsova Maria , Yusipovich Alexander , Shiryaeva Tatiana , Peterkova Valentina

Background/Aims: An increase in growth rate in children suffering from growth hormone deficiency (GHD) subjected to recombinant growth hormone treatment (rGHT) was shown to be accompanied by acceleration of metabolic processes that may stimulate hematopoiesis. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the effects of one year rGHT on erythropoietin (EPO) and Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) levels in GHD children.Meth...

Mutations in PROP1 Gene in Combination with 47,XYY Karyotype: Case Report

Pankratova Maria , Gubaeva Diliara , Kareva Maria , Tiulpakov Anatoly , Peterkova Valentina

Background: Mutations in PROP1 gene are the most common known genetic cause of multiple pituritary hormone deficiency. It is characterized by somatolactotroph, thyrotroph, gonadotroph and sometimes corticotroph deficiencies and pituitary hyper- or hypoplasia. The karyotype 47,XYY occurrs in 1 in every 1000 live male birth. Some studies report that the phenotype of XYY syndrome includes tall stature, behavioral problems and low fertility.Objectiv...

Vitamin D Deficiency in Children

Dobrescu Andreea , Chirita-Emandi Adela , Papa Maria , Puiu Maria

Background: Vitamin D deficiency has a high prevalence in children. It is produced by the skin from exposure to sunlight but its synthesis is influenced by many external and internal factors.Objective and hypotheses: The study aims to evaluate vitamin D in children with different pathology and highlights the influencing factors of it.Method: We evaluate 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in 84 patients, sex ratio 1.15:1, aged between 3 mon...
