Objectives: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening disorder marked by massive cytokine release from macrophage and T-cell activation. Hallmarks include fever, splenomegaly, cytopenias, hypertriglyceridemia, hypofibrinogemia, and elevations in ferritin and soluble IL-2 receptor. Given the association of HLH with inflammation and glucocorticoid therapy, the development of hyperglycemia is not unexpected.

We asked whether we could apply deep learning, specifically the use of a long short-term memory (LSTM) model, to accurately predict the 180-day risk of DKA-related hospitalization for youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Objective: We aimed to describe the development of an LSTM model to predict the 180-day risk of DKA-related hospitalization for youth with T1D.

Objectives: The objective of our study was to describe the prevalence of gender diverse (GD) youth among adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review on patients who met NIH criteria for PCOS in our Multidisciplinary Adolescent PCOS Program (MAPP). We compared those with PCOS to MAPP patients who did not meet PCOS criteria as well as to non-PCOS patients from the Adolescent Specialty Clinic (ASC).
