Growth hormone response following growth hormone releasing hormone injection in thalassemia major: influence of pubertal development

Thirty-five patients with thalassemia major, aged 7 to 21 years, were studied to define the relationship between the pubertal development and the growth-hormone (GH) secretion during sleep, after administration of GH-releasing factor (hpGRF 1-44), and betaxolol-glucagon or arginin-insulin. Pubertal development was classified as being appropriate or delayed for chronological age. GH response to pharmacological stimuli and during sleep was not linked to the pubertal development according to the chronological age. The peak of GH secretion after GHRH injection was significantly delayed in thalassemic patients with retarded puberty. The integrated secretion of GH during the 120-min test was slightly but not significantly reduced in these patients. The prepubertal pattern of GHRH response was restored in the patients receiving substitutive therapy by HCG or testosterone. The alteration of GH response to GHRH in thalassemic patients is likely to be only due to delayed puberty and decreased endogeneous GHRH secretion since it is corrected by androgen or gonadotropin replacement.     

CRITERIA ADOPTED BY DENTISTS TO INDICATE THE EXTRACTION OF PERIODONTALLY INVOLVED TEETH

When dealing with patients with periodontal disease of variable severities, dentists must often choose between treating and restoring the involved tooth or indicating its extraction. Different criteria have been adopted in this decision-making process. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the criteria adopted by dentists to indicate the extraction of teeth with periodontitis. Dentists were interviewed at their private practices in three cities of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The evaluated criteria included severity of attachment loss, tooth mobility, furcation involvement, prosthetic planning, periodontal-endodontic lesion, possible systemic involvement due to the presence of periodontitis, referral to a periodontist for evaluation, radiographic bone loss greater than 50%, presence of extensive caries, socio-economic and cultural status of the patient, among others. The most often adopted criteria to indicate the extraction of periodontally affected teeth were the presence of mobility (37.5%), severity of attachment loss (24.3%) and radiographic bone loss greater than 50% (21.2%). The results of the present study demonstrated the difficulties faced by dentists to indicate the extraction of teeth with severe attachment loss, in addition to the establishment of an adequate prognosis. Aspects associated with the past disease were still the most often reported to indicate the extraction of teeth for periodontal reasons.

The volumetric bone density and cortical thickness in adult patients affected by osteogenesis imperfecta.

In patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a disease characterized by abnormal bone fragility, bone mineral density (BMD) was found to be relatively preserved. Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) is the only available method for directly measuring in vivo both volumetric density and the cross-sectional area. Here we report the data from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry DXA (spine and hip) and peripheral (pQCT) (ultradistal and proximal radius) measurement of 27 adult patients affected by OI, mostly of type I, compared with a group of healthy persons. In the patients with OI, areal BMD values at both femoral neck and lumbar spine were considerably lower than in control subjects (-32 and -36%, respectively; p<0.001 for body weight and height adjusted values). pQCT volumetric density at the ultradistal radius was 19% lower than in control subjects and this difference rose to 32% for purely cancellous bone tissue. The whole bone cross-sectional area of ultradistal radius, as measured by pQCT, was superimposable to normal. At the proximal radius, both cross-sectional area and cortical area, together with Bending Breaking Resistance Index (BBRI), were significantly lower in OI (-23; -22; -32% respectively; p<0.001 for body weight and height adjusted values), but cortical volumetric density was even slightly higher in the OI group than in control subjects. In conclusion, it appears that the most obvious defect in adults with OI is the inability to acquire an adequate thickness of the cortices of long bone and to achieve or maintain normal trabecular density.
