Congenital adrenal hyperplasia in the adult women: management of old and new challenges [PDF]
Due to major improvements in the management and therapy of patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia owing to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) along childhood and adolescence, affected women are able to reach adulthood.

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Copy Number Variations in Genetic Diagnosis of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Children
Background: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a monogenic disorder caused by genetic diversity in the CYP21A2 gene, with 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) as the most common type.

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia in Adults [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder affecting adrenal steroid synthesis. More than 95% of CAH cases are caused by reduced 21-hydroxylase function leading to variable extent of cortisol and aldosterone deficiency in ...

Presentation and Management of Addison's Disease in a 10‐Year‐Old Boy: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Addison's disease, or primary adrenal insufficiency, is a rare endocrine disorder characterized by impaired adrenal hormone production. We report a case of a 10‐year‐old boy with congenital adrenal hyperplasia and secondary Addison's disease on long‐term corticosteroid therapy who presented with recurrent non‐bilious vomiting, low‐grade fever,

High frequency of copy number variations and sequence variants at CYP21A2 locus: implication for the genetic diagnosis of 21-hydroxylase deficiency. [PDF]
The systematic study of the human genome indicates that the inter-individual variability is greater than expected and it is not only related to sequence polymorphisms but also to gene copy number variants (CNVs).

Ultralow-dose dexamethasone to preserve endogenous cortisol stress response in nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia: A new promising treatment [PDF]
Introduction: Nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is characterized by sufficient cortisol and aldosterone production at the cost of androgen overproduction.

This study highlights the significance of non‐canonical splicing variants in male infertility, a factor often overlooked during the analysis of high‐throughput sequencing data. Incorporating the non‐canonical splicing variants prioritization in the genetic analysis pipeline will increase the genetic diagnosis of patients with male infertility ...
