Growth pattern of the nigerian child compared to international references

Elusiyan Jerome , Ibekwe MaryAnn Ugochi , Alkali Y , Agwu J. Chizo

Background: There are currently no specific growth charts for use in Nigerian children over the age of 5 years. Health workers rely on charts developed by the Center for Disease Control for children in USA (2000CDC US) or the UK 1990 growth charts for British children. It is unknown whether Nigerian children grow to the same height or at the same tempo as American or British children.Objective and hypotheses: To compare the growth of the Nigerian child t...

Noonan syndrome patients with short stature at a single pediatric endocrinology centre

Deyanova Y. , Iotova V. , Tsochev K. , Stoyanova M. , Stoicheva R. , Mladenov V. , Bazdarska Y. , Galcheva S. , Zenker M. ,

Introduction: Noonan syndrome (NS) is caused by mutations in RAS/MAPK signaling pathway genes. About 70% of the NS patients have short stature, and human recombinant growth hormone (rhGH) is an established yet not fully standardized treatment.Objective: To assess the first 2 years rhGH treatment effectiveness in NS patients at a single centre.Materials and methods: A total of 20 (16 male) NS patien...

Does Late Sleeping Time Results Increased Bedtime Snack? What is the Risk of this in Childhood Obesity?

Yılmaz Mehmet Mustafa , Gunay Fatih , İlarslan Nisa Eda Cullas , Yılmaz Ozlem , Ateş Funda Seher Ozalp , Kose Serdal Kenan , Atalay Semra , Bilir Pelin

Objective: Several studies have shown that sleep plays an important role as a modulator of metabolic homeostasis. Indeed, hundreds of studies have been published to examine the relationship between insufficient sleep, late bedtime and obesity. We have studied bedtime snack as another parameter. We suggested that it may be a risk factor for obesity. When we looked at the literature, we could not find any study about bedtime snack in childhood, but there are a few studies in adu...

Relation of Screen-Time (Phone-Computer-TV-Online Games) and Physical Activity with Childhood Obesity

Yılmaz Mehmet Mustafa , İlarslan Nisa Eda Cullas , Gunay Fatih , Yılmaz Ozlem , Ates Funda Seher Ozalp , Kose Serdal Kenan , Atalay Semra , Bilir Pelin

Objective: Sedentary lifestyle obviously increases the risk of obesity. Reduced physical activity and increased screen-time seem to act as major determinants of the rapid increase of childhood obesity. Prevention of obesity is easier and more practical in comparison with treatment of obesity and its complications. Treatment of childhood obesity not only carries positive biopsychosocial consequences for the child but also serves as an important public health issue by preventing...

Deep subcutaneous adipose tissue is associated with hyperinsulinemia in adolescents

Cerenius Sara Y. , Stenlid Rasmus , Aydin Banu , Weghuber Daniel , Bergsten Peter , Forslund Anders

Introduction: Abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) is subdivided into two depots by the fascia of Scarpa. The deep SAT (dSAT) and superficial SAT (sSAT) are morphologically and metabolically distinct, with dSAT reportedly being more similar to visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in terms of elevating the risk for obesity-related complications. Conversely, sSAT appears to be more similar to lower-body SAT. The relationship between dSAT and metabolic disease ha...

Maternally Inherited Resistance to Thyroid Hormones with Discordant Postnatal Phenotypes in Two Infant Brothers

Cavin Rosalie , Chevalier Claudia , Van Vliet Guy , Deladoëy Johnny

Resistance to thyroid hormone due to mutations inactivating thyroid hormone receptor-Beta occurs in one in 40,000 individuals and can arise de novo or be inherited, generally in a dominant fashion. Clinical manifestations are widely variable and include failure to thrive in infancy. The biochemical diagnosis is usually straightforward: high serum fT4 and non-suppressed TSH.We report two brothers who both inherited the known c.728G>A, p.R24...

Stuve-Wiedemann Syndrome: A Case Report without Osteorosis

Orbak Zerrin , Yüce Kahraman Çigdem , Orbak Recep , Özden Ayse , Tatar Abdulgani

Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome (SWS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by bowing of the long bones and other skeletal anomalies, neuromuscular abnormalities, dysautonomic symptoms, and respiratory and feeding distress usually resulting in early death.We report a girl, aged 6 years, with SWS. We measured bone mineral density in the lumbar spine, using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) with a densitometer (Hologic). The result is express...

Our Treatment Experience with Nocturnal Continuous Enteral Calcium Infusion in a Case with Vitamin D Resistance Rickets Type II

Filibeli Berna Eroğlu , Kırbıyık Ozgur , Dundar Bumin Nuri

Introduction: Vitamin D resistant rickets type II (VDDR-II) is a disease with a difficult treatment developed as a result of mutations in VDR gene. Despite high dose active vitamin D and oral calcium treatments, sufficient recovery cannot be achieved mostly. Successful results with intravenous calcium infusion that is an alternative treatment have been reported; however, serious restrictions and complications such as hospitalization, catheter infection, thrombosis, skin necros...

Buluş Derya , Tayfur Aslı Celebi , Yılmaz Deniz

Introduction: The carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) deficiency syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder associated with osteopetrosis, renal tubular acidosis (RTA), and cerebral calcification (CADS; autosomal recessive osteopetrosis type 3). Other features include visual and auditory impairment, short stature, a large cranial vault, history of multiple skeletal fractures, developmental delay and cognitive defects, anemia, splenomegaly and secondary erythropoiesis.

Case Report: Ellis Van Creveld Syndrome With a Novel Mutation

Sobu Elif , Demirkol Yasemin Kendir , Yılmaz Gulay Can , Ozcora Gul Demet , Yenigurbuz Fatma

Introduction: Ellis Van Creveld syndrome (EVC) is a rare condition which is characterized with disproportionate short stature, postaxial polydactyly, and dysplastic nails and teeth. It is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to mutations of EVC 1 and 2 genes located on chromosome 4p16. EVC syndrome is a chondroectodermal dysplasia. Congenital heart defects; especially atrial septal defect and single atrium occurs in 60% of affected individuals. Here we report a 5 year-old f...
