    (Scientific Publishers India, 2013-01-01) Eren, Erdal; Çakır, Esra Deniz Papatya; Bostan, Özlem; Sağlam, Halil; Tarım, Ömer; EREN, ERDAL; Çakır, Esra Deniz Papatya; BOSTAN, ÖZLEM MEHTAP; SAĞLAM, HALİL; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Tıp Fakültesi; Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Ana Bilim Dalı; Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Bilim Dalı; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0003-4664-7435; 0000-0001-7707-2174; 0000-0002-6598-8262; 0000-0002-5322-5508; GQO-9634-2022; AAG-8558-2021; JPK-3909-2023; C-7392-2019; GLN-8241-2022; CCU-8073-2022
    Our aim was to investigate effects of chronic hypoxia on endocrine function in pediatric patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Thirty patients with cyanotic CHD (16 boys, 14 girls), and 35 control subjects (22 boys, 13 girls) were enrolled. Age means of patients and controls were 4.37 +/- 4.51 and 4.28 +/- 4.96 years, respectively. Standard deviation scores (SDS) of height and weight were significantly lower among patients compared to controls. Mean fasting glucose levels were 75 +/- 15 mg/dL and 83 +/- 12 mg/dL among patients and controls, respectively (p=0.033). Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) 1 and its SDS were significantly lower among patients (p=0.010). There was no significant difference in ACTH and cortisol levels between groups. ACTH levels were very low in six patients. Oxygen saturation level was positively correlated with ACTH (p=0.041, r=0.439) and negatively correlated with HOMA-IR (p=0.046, r=-0.420) and insulin (p=0.017, r=-0.494). There was no difference in insulin resistance between groups. Chronic hypoxia has negative impact on growth by reducing IGF-1 along with the nutritional deficiency in children with cyanotic CHD. ACTH-adrenal axis is also affected. While cyanotic CHD has decreased serum glucose level, it had no effect on insulin level and insulin resistance. Negative correlations between oxygen saturation, and HOMA-IR, fasting insulin levels, have suggested that these patients should be monitorized for insulin resistance.

    Aim: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious condition with the highest rates of morbidity and mortality in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1 DM). Hospitalization due to DKA constitutes about 2 to 8 percent of all-cause admissions. About 25% of children with newly diagnosed T1DM present with DKA. In this study, we aimed to evaluate sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of children admitted with DKA.Materials and Method: Records of 490 children admitted with T1DM between January 2003 and October 2008 were retrospectively reviewed and data on sociodemographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics of 163 children with the diagnosis of DKA was investigated in detail.Results: Of 490 children with T1DM, 163 (33.2%) had the diagnosis of DKA and total number of DKA episodes was 190. The recurrence rate was 14.2% and 85% (6 out of 7) of those with recurrent episodes were girls. The mean age was 11.02 4.57 years and DKA episodes were most frequently seen in 10-15 (39.3) age-group. DKA episodes peaked in the periods of January-February-March and children (i.e, 0-5 age group) (54 5%) The mean duration of recoveiy from acidosis was 14.29+/-12.14 hours the mean blood glucose level at baseline was 473.09 +/- 141,07 mg/dI and the mean initial HbAl c level vvas 12.04+/-2.42%, In this approximately six-year-penod, only one patient was lost and the mortality rate was 0,5% (1 tit of 190 episodes).Conclusion: Increasing the knowledge of primary care physicians who see the patients first on DKA and al3plying the DKA treatment protocol more slowly and cautiously in younger children (0-5 age group) will definitely loldver the morbidity and mortalibt of DKA.

    Genotype and phenotype heterogeneity in neonatal diabetes: A single centre experience in Turkey
    (Galenos Yayıncılık, 2021-03-01) Öngen, Yasemin Denkboy; Eren, Erdal; Demirbaş, Özgecan; Sobu, Elif; Ellard, Sian; De Franco, Elisa; Tarım, Ömer; DENKBOY ÖNGEN, YASEMİN; EREN, ERDAL; DEMİRBAŞ, ÖZGECAN; Sobu, Elif; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Tıp Fakültesi; Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Ana Bilim Dalı; 0000-0002-5657-4260; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-6922-5203; 0000-0002-2037-7046; 0000-0002-5322-5508; KHZ-1491-2024 ; JPK-3909-2023; GQX-9760-2022 ; GSN-9730-2022; CCU-8073-2022
    Objective: Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) may be transient or permanent, and the majority is caused by genetic mutations. Early diagnosis is essential to select the patients who will respond to oral treatment. In this investigation, we aimed to present the phenotype and genotype of our patients with NDM and share our experience in a single tertiary center.Methods: A total of 16 NDM patients from 12 unrelated families are included in the study. The clinical presentation, age at diagnosis, perinatal and family history, consanguinity, gender, hemoglobin A1c, C-peptide, insulin, insulin autoantibodies, genetic mutations, and response to treatment are retrospectively evaluated.Results: The median age at diagnosis of diabetes was five months (4 days-18 months) although six patients with a confirmed genetic diagnosis were diagnosed >6 months. Three patients had KCNJ11 mutations, six had ABCC8 mutations, three had EIF2AK3 mutations, and one had a de novo INS mutation. All the permanent NDM patients with KCNJ11 and ABCC8 mutations were started on sulfonylurea treatment resulting in a significant increase in C-peptide level, better glycemic control, and discontinuation of insulin.Conclusion: Although NDM is defined as diabetes diagnosed during the first six months of life, and a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is more common between the ages of 6 and 24 months, in rare cases NDM may present as late as 12 or even 24 months of age. Molecular diagnosis in NDM is important for planning treatment and predicting prognosis. Therefore, genetic testing is essential in these patients.

    ObjectiveCholestatic jaundice in early infancy is a complex diagnostic challenge. Cholestasis caused by endocrine disease is rare and poorly recognized. The aim of this paper is to report patients with liver dysfunctions resulting from hypopituitarism.MethodsSix patients with liver dysfunction diagnosed as hypopituitarism were studied and followed up atUludag University Faculty of Medicine.ResultsThe median age of the patients at first presentation was 2.5 mo. Three patients were diagnosed with congenital hypopituitarism at the first visit, and the other three were diagnosed during follow-up. Serum aminotransferase levels were very high in two patients and only moderately elevated in the others. Combined adrenal, thyroid, and growth hormone deficiencies were diagnosed in two patients, while remaining 4 patients had various combinations of adrenal, thyroid, and growth hormone deficiencies. Liver function abnormalities resolved between 10 d and 2 mo follow-up after hormone replacement therapy.ConclusionsAbnormal liver biochemical test results due to hormonal deficiencies in infants should be considered in the differential diagnosis by pediatricians. Hormone replacement therapy is the basis of treatment.

    Objective: Turner syndrome (TS) is a chromosomal disorder caused by complete or partial X chromosome monosomy that manifests various clinical features depending on the karyotype and on the genetic background of affected girls. This study aimed to systematically investigate the key clinical features of TS in relationship to karyotype in a large pediatric Turkish patient population.Methods: Our retrospective study included 842 karyotype-proven TS patients aged 0-18 years who were evaluated in 35 different centers in Turkey in the years 2013-2014.Results: The most common karyotype was 45, X (50.7%), followed by 45, X/46, XX (10.8%), 46, X, i(Xq) (10.1%) and 45, X/46, X, i(Xq) (9.5%). Mean age at diagnosis was 10.2 +/- 4.4 years. The most common presenting complaints were short stature and delayed puberty. Among patients diagnosed before age one year, the ratio of karyotype 45, X was significantly higher than that of other karyotype groups. Cardiac defects (bicuspid aortic valve, coarctation of the aorta and aortic stenosis) were the most common congenital anomalies, occurring in 25% of the TS cases. This was followed by urinary system anomalies (horseshoe kidney, double collector duct system and renal rotation) detected in 16.3%. Hashimoto's thyroiditis was found in 11.1% of patients, gastrointestinal abnormalities in 8.9%, ear nose and throat problems in 22.6%, dermatologic problems in 21.8% and osteoporosis in 15.3%. Learning difficulties and/or psychosocial problems were encountered in 39.1%. Insulin resistance and impaired fasting glucose were detected in 3.4% and 2.2%, respectively. Dyslipidemia prevalence was 11.4%.Conclusion: This comprehensive study systematically evaluated the largest group of karyotype-proven TS girls to date. The karyotype distribution, congenital anomaly and comorbidity profile closely parallel that from other countries and support the need for close medical surveillance of these complex patients throughout their lifespan.

    (Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2022-09-23) Eren, Erdal; Öngen, Yasemin Denkboy; Özgür, Taner; Özpar, Rıfat; Demirbaş, Özgecan; Yazıcı, Zeynep; Tarım, Ömer; EREN, ERDAL; DENKBOY ÖNGEN, YASEMİN; ÖZGÜR, TANER; ÖZPAR, RİFAT; DEMİRBAŞ, ÖZGECAN; YAZICI, ZEYNEP; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Tıp Fakültesi; Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Ana Bilim Dalı; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0001-6649-9287; 0000-0002-6922-5203; 0000-0002-5322-5508; KHZ-1491-2024; JPK-3909-2023; AAH-5062-2021; AAI-2303-2021; FPE-9941-2022; GQX-9760-2022; CCU-8073-2022
    Objectives To determine the importance of serum prolactin (PRL) in the detection of pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS) in children with multiple pituitary hormone deficiency (MPHD). We hypothesized that PRL elevation might be a diagnostic indicator of pituitary stalk pathologies. Methods Clinical, radiological, and laboratory features of the 50 cases of MPHD were studied. Results The median age at presentation of the 50 cases (52%, n=26 were female) was 6.61 (0.02-18.9) years. PSIS was detected in 60% (n=30), pituitary hypoplasia in 32% (n=16), partial empty sella in 6% (n=3), and only 2% (n=1) was reported as normal. Out of 50 patients, 21.3% (n=10) were hypoprolactinemic, 44.7% (n=19) were normoprolactinemic, and 34% (n=16) were hyperprolactinemic. The median PRL value was 27.85 (4.21-130) ng/mL in patients with PSIS and 5.57 (0-41.8) ng/mL in patients without PSIS. Additional hormone deficiencies, especially ACTH and LH were detected in follow-up. Conclusions Patients with normal or high prolactin levels deserve special attention regarding the possibility of PSIS. Furthermore, we emphasize the importance of regular follow-up and monitoring for multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies in all patients with a single pituitary hormone deficiency.

    Does growth hormone treatment advance bone age?
    (Galenos Yayincilik, 2017-08-01) Sağlam, Halil; SAĞLAM, HALİL; Tarım, Ömer; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Salı, Enes; Eren, Erdal; EREN, ERDAL; Tıp Fakültesi; Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Ana Bilim Dalı; 0000-0002-6598-8262; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-5322-5508; JPK-3909-2023; C-7392-2019
    Introduction: Growth hormone (GH) treatment may have a stimulatory effect on bone maturation which raises concern about acceleration of bone maturation leading to early epiphyseal fusion. In this study, we aimed to investigate this possibility and determine whether or not accelerated bone maturation affects predicted or final height.Methods: A total of 230 patients who received GH treatment between 1995 and 2005 were retrospectively studied. The patients were classified as isolated growth hormone deficiency (GHD) (Group-1), Turner syndrome (Group-2), and others (Group-3). The previous X rays were obtained from the medical records and follow-up X rays were requested during the clinic visit. Bone age (BA) assessment was done according to the atlas of Greulich and Pyle. Based on BA, adult height prediction was calculated by the method of Bayley and Pinneau. The predicted height (PH) at baseline and after the first and second years of treatment were evaluated along with the change in chronological age (CA)-BA and CA/BA.Results: Height SDS significantly increased in all three groups (p<0.05). CA-BA decreased in Groups-1 and 2 during the first and second years of treatment (p<0.05). The BA acceleration was verified by the decrement in CA/BA ratio. However, predicted height was not negatively influenced despite BA advancement.Discussion and Conclusion: BA advances with GH treatment as evident from the reduction in CABA and CA/BA. However, predicted height is not adversely affected by accelerated bone maturation in our cohort over two years of treatment. This issue needs to be investigated in other patient groups such as precocious puberty where bone maturation is further accelerated.
