Filter by:Background: Endocrine disorders occur when the glands that make hormones do not work properly. Hormones levels that are too high or too low can cause problems such as late or early puberty, irregular periods, and infertility. Environmental factors - including pollution; chemical exposure at home and work; foods; medicines; and sleep habits - may cause problems with the endocrine and reproductive systems. Objective: To learn how environmental factors may affect the endocrine and reproductive systems. Eligibility: Males or females, referring to sex assigned at birth, aged 8 years and older; they must have hypogonadism, infertility, or other reproductive disorders. Design: Adult participants will have 4 to 5 visits in 5 years. Children may have up to 12 visits; they may remain in the study up to the age of 23. Most visits will be less than 3 hours. Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests. They will complete questionnaires; they will answer questions about their diet, health, and other topics. Some may be referred for additional tests, such as imaging scans and semen analysis. Specific tests conducted during study visits will vary, depending on the participant s diagnosis. In addition to repeated blood and urine tests, these may include: Body composition measure: Participants will sit in a pod-shaped machine for about 6 minutes. The machines measures the air inside the capsule to record body fat and breathing volume. Resting energy expenditure test: Participants will lie down with a clear dome placed over their head. They will breathe quietly for 30 minutes. This test measures the number of calories their body burns at rest. ...
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Debio 4326 in suppressing serum luteinizing hormone (LH) to prepubertal levels 52 weeks after the first Debio 4326 injection in pediatric participants receiving gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) therapy for central precocious puberty (CPP).
Various studies show an increase in the number of cases of early puberty in girls with breast development with a variable clinical presentation and evolution. This increasing phenomenon concerns girls between 6 and 8 years old. In a large number of cases, from 70 to 95% depending on the series, no medical cause is found and environmental factors are suspected to be involved. Descriptive studies of these patients are scarce and not always provide an overview of all the parameters in line with the concept of the exposome. The PENELOPE clinical trial will allow to analyze a large number of parameters, including the adipose tissue, its metabolism, the endocrine disruptors, and the epigenetic modifications, and to study the impact of environmental health measures in the evolution of these parameters. The data from the analyses of the endocrine disruptors of the patients will be explored in parallel in experimental models (amphibians, murine, cellular) in order to test potential mechanistic hypotheses.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DWJ108J (Leuprorelin acetate 11.25 mg) in patients with central precocious puberty.
The goal of this observational study is to describe the natural history of imprinting disorders (IDs) according to their metabolic profile in all patients (adults and children) affected with an ID regardless of the severity of the disease, with a molecular characterization, with a signed informed consent for all subjects, followed in one partner's center. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can we identify common metabolic profiles for all imprinted diseases? - Which imprinting disorders have an impact on the metabolic profiles of IDs? - Which are the metabolic risks associated to IDs? - Can we use the metabolic profiles for the clinical classification and prognosis of IDs? - Are there common therapeutic approaches for all IDs?
The study will evaluate if Leuprolide Mesylate is safe and effective in the treatment of subjects with central (gonadotropin-dependent) precocious puberty, when administered as two injections six months apart.
The main aim is to see how leuprolide works to treat central precocious puberty in children. Participants will receive an injection of leuprorelin acetate depot 11.25 mg every 12 weeks during 6 months and will visit their study clinic 6 times to complete some assessments.
Body size and eye function play an essential role in adapting to the environment and human survival. Growth hormone is commonly recognized by its effect on the height of individuals; Although from an evolutionary perspective, the effects of growth hormone on eye development are more important. Although the effect of growth hormone on eye development has not been accurately determined, the results of a number of studies suggest the effect of growth hormone on eye development. Despite the large number of studies that have investigated the effects of growth hormone on height growth, there are few studies that have investigated the effects of growth hormone on the eye. To the best of our knowledge, no study has been conducted to investigate the effect of growth hormone on ocular findings of patients with early or precocious puberty. Therefore, we intend to investigate the effect of growth hormone on ocular findings of patients with early or precocious puberty.
The COPENHAGEN School Study is a combined cross-sectional and longitudinal study of healthy Danish school children. This study will by clinical examinations and withdrawal of blood samples investigate whether age of pubertal onset is continuing to decline in Denmark over the past 15 years. Furthermore, we will investigate the mechanism driving earlier onset of puberty and the long term health risks of extremely early puberty using Danish registry data
Precocious puberty and childhood overweight and obesity are important public health problems that both had adverse effects, which including psychological symptom in childhood, short final height or reproductive dysfunction in adulthood, on children's physical and psychological development.The prevalence of precocious puberty and childhood overweight and obesity are both high, and a growing body of epidemiological studies suggested that there was a close relationship of childhood overweight and obesity with puberty development, especially in girls. However, the underlying mechanism between them is unclear. Existing evidence shows that the occurrence of precocious puberty and overweight and obesity are the result of interaction of multiple factors, which consists growth environment and genetics, and many previous studies provided that more overlapping genes existed between obesity and precocious puberty patients, suggesting that common genes may result in these diseases. Therefore, based on a case control study, which will investigate the associations between obesity pleiotropic genes and early puberty, the researchers will collect information related to obesity, growth environment factors and risk genes in this study to evaluate the relationships of these related factors and precocious puberty, and to further explore whether there exists biological interaction effects of these risk factors on sexual precocity. This project has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanghai Children's Medical Center.
