Management and Outcomes of Idiopathic Central Precocious Puberty in Girls Open
The sequelae of early development are not merely transient but are predictive of difficulties and challenges that persist into adulthood. In fact, the diagnosis and appropriate treatment of early puberty is essential in order to avoid perm…

GH-IGF-1 Axis in Children with Cystic Fibrosis Open
In our LD patients during childhood, we observed good auxological values and a GH/IGF-I axis function within normal range for the factor evaluated. However, earlier diagnosis through NBS might further minimize and prevent growth retardatio…

Trehalose Modulates Autophagy Process to Counteract Gliadin Cytotoxicity in an In Vitro Celiac Disease Model Open
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disorder that is triggered by the ingestion of gliadin peptides, the alcohol-soluble fraction of wheat gluten. These peptides, which play a key role in the immune response that underlies…

The Emerging Role of the Autophagy Process in Children with Celiac Disease: Current Status and Research Perspectives Open
Celiac disease (CD) affects approximately 1% of the population in Europe and North America, but the number of patients currently undiagnosed is estimated to be far higher than that of diagnosed cases owing to the presence of prevalent form…
