Body size of male Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at introduction of a 5‐week LD12:12 winter signal influences their decision to mature early or smoltify

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual maturation of male Atlantic salmon post‐smolts (‘jacking’) is undesired in aquaculture and seems to occur due to the intensification in modern facilities. Maturation depends on internal and external factors (temperature, photoperiod, feed availability, energy levels, body size, genetic background) that act on the brain‐pituitary‐gonad ...

A Study on Deep Learning Based Sauvegrain Method for Measurement of Puberty Bone Age [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
This study applies a technique to expand the number of images to a level that allows deep learning. And the applicability of the Sauvegrain method through deep learning with relatively few elbow X-rays is studied. The study was composed of processes similar to the physicians' bone age assessment procedures.

Long-Term Follow-Up Results of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Hypothalamic Hamartoma : How can we Improve the Results? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Objective: Hypothalamic hamartomas (HH) constitute rare developmental lesions associated with gelastic seizure, precocious puberty, and abnormal behavior. Treatment for this lesion is very complicated due to its location.

Reproductive and developmental effects of phthalate diesters in females. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Phthalate diesters, widely used in flexible plastics and consumer products, have become prevalent contaminants in the environment. Human exposure is ubiquitous and higher phthalate metabolite concentrations documented in patients using medications with ...

Hurry up and wait: Developmental anxiety during the transition to adulthood

open access: yesJournal of Family Theory &Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Growing up is rarely easy, yet adolescents and young adults today are reporting distress at rates never seen before. We propose this trend can be traced to societal forces that accelerate and suppress development, resulting in developmental anxiety (i.e., worry about meeting adult milestones on time, if ever).

A Case of Atypical McCune-Albright Syndrome with Vaginal Bleeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare non-inherited disorder characterized by the clinical triad of precocious puberty, cafe-au-lait skin lesions, and fibrous dysplasia of bone.

Increase of astrocyte apposition on GnRH neurons in early puberty onset induced by high fat diet

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
This study suggests that the HFD‐induced anticipation of puberty seems to be, at least partially, mediated by an increase in the interaction between astrocytes and GnRH neurons in both the MPOA and ARC/EM, which may increase the excitability of GnRH neurons.

Management of precocious puberty [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology, 2013
The objectives of treatment for children with central precocious puberty (CPP) are to avoid psychosocial problems caused by early pubertal development and to normalize adult height (AH). A long-acting GnRH analog is the treatment of choice for CPP.

Dynamic changes in Ccn3 expression across the limbic forebrain through the mouse estrous cycle and during lactation

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cellular communication network factor 3 (CCN3), also known as nephroblastoma overexpressed (NOV), is an adipocytokine that has recently been suggested to be secreted selectively by hypothalamic arcuate nucleus kisspeptin (ARNKISS) neurons to protect bone density during lactation. Using RNAscope hybridization, we have examined the expression of
