Severe Short Stature and rhGH Resistance in a Child Born SGA: The Role of a Novel IGF1R Mutation, Case Report and Narrative Review
Background: Genetic causes of growth failure should be suspected in patients born small for gestational age (SGA) who fail to show postnatal catch-up growth, present with severe short stature (SS), and exhibit a poor or absent response to growth hormone (rhGH) therapy. Mutations in the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) gene are associated with impaired growth, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), low birth weight and/or length, and…
Scare quotes as scare tactics: The use of quotation in ultraconservative Polish discourse
The paper examines the role of quotation in shaping social attitudes and reinforcing norms and values within the discourse on issues such as abortion, hate speech, and LGBT+ rights of the Polish ultraconservative organization Centrum Życia i Rodziny. The aim of the paper is to classify and analyze the use of different varieties of quotation, with a particular focus on the distancing and expressive functions of scare quotation. It also examines in…
Retrospective Analysis of Fever in Pediatric Age: Our Experience over the Last 5 Years
Our data underline the importance of predictive markers, such as clinical and laboratory parameters, to differentiate infectious from non-infectious fevers, but further studies are necessary
Treating Children and Adolescents with Obesity: Predictors of Early Dropout in Pediatric Weight-Management Programs
The study demonstrated a high dropout rate during follow-up, mainly among adolescents and patients with no glucometabolic alterations
Severe Obesity Defined by Percentiles of WHO and Cardiometabolic Risk in Youth with Obesity
Background/Objectives: The pediatric definition of severe obesity (OB) depends on the body mass index (BMI) references. We evaluated different BMI-derived metrics of the World Health Organization (WHO) system to define which cut-off is associated with the highest cardiometabolic risk (CMR); Methods: In this multicentric study, data were retrieved for 3727 youths (1937 boys; 2225 children, 1502 adolescents). OB was defined as BMI > 97th percentile…
Is Metabolic Syndrome Useful for Identifying Youths with Obesity at Risk for NAFLD
The definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in childhood is controversial. Recently, a modified version of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) definition was proposed using reference data from an international population for high waist circumference (WC) and blood pressure (BP), while the fixed cutoffs for lipids and glucose were not changed. We analyzed MetS prevalence using this modified definition (MetS-IDF m ) and its association with…
Which Is the Most Appropriate Cut-Off of HbA1c for Prediabetes Screening in Caucasian Youths with Overweight or Obesity
This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the best cut-off of HbA1c for detection of impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), beta-cell impairment and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) profile in overweight or obese (OW/OB) Caucasian youths. Two-hour oral glucose tolerance test was available in 1549 youths, one-hour glucose (G 60 ) in 1430 youths and disposition index (DI) in 972 youths. Insulin resistance (IR) was calculated a…
One-Hour Post-Load Plasma Glucose and Altered Glucometabolic Profile in Youths with Overweight or Obesity
In youths, two cut-offs (133 and 155 mg/dL) have been proposed to identify high glucose levels at the 1 h (G 60 ) mark during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). We evaluated which cut-off was more closely associated with isolated impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) in 1199 youth with overweight/obesity (OW/OB) and normal fasting glucose and/or HbA1c. The disposition index (DI) was available in 724 youths. The sampl…
