Newborn Screening for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Review of Factors Affecting Screening Accuracy
Newborn screening for 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD), the most common form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, has been performed routinely in the United States and other countries for over 20 years.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase defi ciency is one of the most common autosomal recessive hereditary diseases. The lack of cortisol synthesis leads to excessive stimulation of the adrenal glands by adrenocorticotropic hormone ...

Does visual experience influence arm proprioception and its lateralization? Evidence from passive matching performance in congenitally-blind and sighted adults [PDF]
In humans, body segments' position and movement can be estimated from multiple senses such as vision and proprioception. It has been suggested that vision and proprioception can influence each other and that upper-limb proprioception is asymmetrical, with proprioception of the non-dominant arm being more accurate and/or precise than proprioception of ...

Syrian females with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: a case series
Background One of the most common types of congenital adrenal hyperplasia is an autosomal recessive disorder with 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The classical form, defined by cortisol insufficiency, is accompanied by prenatal androgen excess causing ...

MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE: Gonadal dysfunction in congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
Gonadal dysfunction is an adverse outcome in patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), which may become apparent already during puberty. Clinical consequences of gonadal dysfunction include menstrual disturbances in females and hypogonadism and
