Brief Summary: This prospective natural history study examined the timing and positive indicators for reshaping of vertebral fractures (VF) in glucocorticoid (GC)-treated patients with chronic diseases. Complete VF reshaping occurred in 82.3% of patients, with similar frequencies in all diagnosis groups (leukemia, rheumatic disorders and nephrotic syndrome) in a median time of 1.3 years. Likelihood of VF reshaping was positively related to higher lumbar spine bone mineral dens...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2022 Feb 17;107(3):638-648. doi: 10.1210/clinem/dgab798. PMID: 34726229Brief Summary: This large monocenter retrospective cohort study (n=469) of patients diagnosed with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) identified predictors of transient vs. permanent CH. The authors developed a 4-item risk score (0-13 points) to be used from the age of 12 months on to predict t...
