Brief Summary: This cross-sectional study identifies two pathogenic variants in the Delta-like noncanonical notch ligand 1 ( DLK1 ) gene in a French cohort of 121 children with idiopathic central precocious puberty (CPP).DLK1 is a noncanonical ligand of the Delta Notch pathway known to be involved in adipocyte differentiation. Its hypothalamic expression suggests a potential role in coordinating reproductive and metabolic functions. Pathogenic v...

Brief Summary: This retrospective, observational, single centre study compared the risk of tumor progression or recurrence in 71 patients with childhood-onset craniopharyngioma (CP) who started GH replacement therapy (GHRT) with different latency from the end of tumor treatment.GHRT latency was defined as the time from end of CP treatment (last debulking procedure or radiotherapy, or from CP diagnosis for the 5 patients without any debulking procedure or...
