Spontaneous Pubertal Development in Turner’s Syndrome
TL;DR: The increased percentage of spontaneous menarche is Turner's syndrome reported in the recent literature might be due to increased ascertainment by diligent screening for Turner’s syndrome in girls with short stature and mild or no Turner's Syndrome stigmata, even though they may be menstruating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term observation of 87 girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty treated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs: impact on adult height, body mass index, bone mineral content, and reproductive function.

TL;DR: GnRHa treatment in ICPP is safe for the reproductive system, BMD, and BMI and helpful in reaching AH close to target height; however, the variability of individual responses suggests that one choose more parameters than increment in height, especially in girls with pubertal onset over 8 yr of age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Special features of Graves' disease in early childhood.
TL;DR: Three unrelated children, all females, in whom GD occurred before the age of 3, presented with goiter, exophthalmos, tachycardia, and hyperactivity, one showed a severe psychomotor delay, and had previously undergone surgery due to craniosynostosis; the other two manifested a language delay.

Anna Maria Pasquino,Ida Pucarelli,F. Passeri,Maria Segni,Maria Antonietta Mancini,G. Municchi +5 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Adult Height in Short Normal Girls Treated with Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Analogs and Growth Hormone
TL;DR: The experience suggests that the combination of GH and GnRHa is significantly more effective in improving adult height than GH alone in girls with idiopathic short stature, early or normal onset of puberty, and low PAH well below the third percentile and TH.
