The experience of diagnosis announcement in rare endocrine diseases: A survey of the French FIRENDO network
CONCLUSION: This work suggests that better knowledge of the patient's experience is useful for improving the diagnosis announcement of rare endocrine disorders. The main recommendations derived from the survey were the need for several announcement visits, information on patient support groups and reference centers, imperatively avoiding impersonal announcement, and the usefulness of a written accompanying document.PMID:37951412 | DOI:10.1016/j.ando.2023.10.008 (Source: Annales d'Endocrinologie)

Case report: Coexistence of Jacobs syndrome, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and ambiguous genitalia in a male infant
Key Clinical MessageJacobs syndrome and congenital adrenal hyperplasia are separate entities but share common clinical features such as ambiguous genitalia. Further studies are needed to conclude the relationship between Jacobs syndrome and congenital adrenal hyperplasia.AbstractA 5-month-old male infant was evaluated for ambiguous genitalia. Examination revealed cryptorchidism, inguinal hernia, long phallus, and Grade 3 scrotal hypospadias. Serum 17-OH progesterone was high and chromosomal analysis showed 47XYY/45XO. A diagnosis of Jacobs and CAH was made. The parents were counseled about the patient's condition. He was g...

Evaluation of ex-vivo adrenocorticotropic hormone-responsiveness of human fetal testis
Endocrinology. 2023 Nov 3:bqad165. doi: 10.1210/endocr/bqad165. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTesticular adrenal rest tumors (TART), commonly occurring in males with congenital adrenal hyperplasia, may arise from chronic stimulation of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-sensitive cells in the testes. It is not yet established whether the human fetal testis (HFT) is responsive to ACTH. To investigate this, we cultured HFT tissue with and without ACTH for up to 5 days, and quantified adrenal steroid hormones and expression of adrenal steroidogenic enzymes. Fetal testis and adrenal tissue produced high levels of testosterone ...

Cardiovascular risk in Cuban adolescents and young adults with congenital adrenal hyperplasia
CONCLUSIONS: Some cardiometabolic risk factors were increased in patients with CAH and were associated with clinical, hormonal and treatment parameters of CAH. Cardiometabolic risk should be evaluated regularly in patients with CAH.PMID:37919699 | DOI:10.1186/s12902-023-01499-9 (Source: Atherosclerosis)

Hyperandrogenism and Cardiometabolic Risk in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women-What Is the Evidence?
J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2023 Oct 27:dgad590. doi: 10.1210/clinem/dgad590. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHyperandrogenism in women, such as polycystic ovary syndrome, ovarian hyperthecosis, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and androgen-secreting tumors, are all associated with increased prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors that include type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome. However, it is not clear whether this also implies enhanced risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Furthermore, the involvement of obesity and menopausal status for cardiometabolic risk in these women has not bee...
