The Use of Routine Laboratory 17‐Hydroxyprogesterone for Identification of Cases of 21‐Hydroxylase Deficiency Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 2, Page 123-129, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical outcome studies of 21‐hydroxylase deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia (21OHD CAH) may be subject to selection bias due to incomplete case ascertainment. This study aimed to develop a methodology for identifying existing CAH cases and explore its utility to study clinical outcomes. Methods 17‐hydroxyprogesterone assays

Genetic Insights and Lifelong Management of Aldosterone Synthase Deficiency: A Case of Hyperreninemic Hypoaldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aldosterone synthase deficiency is a rare cause of neonatal salt‐wasting and failure to thrive. Routine newborn electrolyte screening after 5 days of life is vital for early detection and prevention of life‐threatening crises. Genetic confirmation enables targeted fludrocortisone therapy, ensuring favorable growth and developmental outcomes.

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology, 2017
The congenital adrenal hyperplasias comprise a family of autosomal recessive disorders that disrupt adrenal steroidogenesis. The most common form is due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency associated with mutations in the 21-hydroxylase gene, which is located at chromosome 6p21.
