Factors affecting the quality of life of adults living with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: a qualitative study of lived experience [PDF]

Endocrine Connections
Objective: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a genetic condition caused by enzymatic defects of adrenal steroidogenesis. The physical manifestations of CAH are well recognised, but the effects on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are unclear ...

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Role of dentist in early diagnosis

Open Medicine, 2022
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a genetic disorder characterized by an impairment of steroid synthesis due to an altered production of 21-hydroxylase enzyme. Corticoid hormones are involved in the development and functioning of many organs.
