Filter by:The aim of the study is to determine whether physiological sex steroid replacement improves parameters of skeletal, cardiovascular and reproductive health of women treated with current sex steroid replacement regimens.
Primary objective is to assess the relationship between changes from serum biomarkers observed after 1 month of Saizen® therapy and change in height, weight after up to 5 years of treatment with Growth Hormone in children with Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) and Turner Syndrome (TS).
The experimental focus of this project is on the interaction of DHEA treatment on pregnancy in women with otherwise unexplained infertility and evidence of premature ovarian aging (POA).
Turner Syndrome (TS) is associated with osteopenia and osteoporosis. Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increased risk of fractures are present in many younger and middle-aged women with TS. The objective is therefore to describe longitudinal changes in BMD in TS. The study is an observational follow-up study. Examinations at baseline, after 5 and 10 years. Bone mineral density is measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and bone turnover by bone markers. Main Outcome Measures: Bone mineral density (BMD; grams/ square centimetre) were measured at lumbar spine, hip and the non-dominant forearm.
An observational study of 102 women with Turner syndrome followed for 6 years with a two-yearly examination including ECHO, MRI of the heart and 24 ambulatory blood pressure. It has been found that besides an significantly increased risk of congenital cardiac malformations, TS have an increased risk of developing cardiac disease including the life threatening condition of aortic dilatation and rupture. The aim of the study is to describe the cardiac conditions of TS, evaluate different methods of examination and identify possible risc factors.
The aim of the study is to investigate whether inactive FSH plays a role in the development of Premature Ovarian Failure in women with Classic Galactosemia
In the literature, cases of thrombosis in the venous system have been described in girls and women with Turner syndrome. By screening a group of women with Turner syndrome, the researchers wish to find out if this condition is more frequent in this patient population.
Premature ovarian failure (POF) is known to be associated with an increased risk of ocular surface disease (dry eye), likely due to the reduction of both estrogens and androgens seen in this condition. From preliminary data, we suspect that women with Turners syndrome (45, XO), a genetic abnormality that affects sex hormone levels, are also at increased risk of ocular surface disease. Comparing POF and TS women may allow us to distinguish different mechanisms for ocular surface disease, due to the different etiologies of hormonal (estrogen and androgen) alterations posed by POF and TS.
The protein polymorphism of the growth hormone receptor characterized by the genomic deletion of exon 3 has been linked to the magnitude of the first-year-growth response to growth hormone (GH) in girls with Turner syndrome. Objective: to study the long-term effect of GH therapy in Turner syndrome in correlation to this GHR polymorphism in a mainly retrospective design (chart-review).
Primary Objectives: - To determine the effectiveness of the 3-month depot leuprolide in inducing and maintaining secondary amenorrhea in patients undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. - To determine the incidence of regained ovarian function manifested as spontaneous restoration of menstruation and normalization of hormonal level in patients after transplantation and discontinuation of long-acting leuprolide.
