Feasibility of caregiver diabetes distress screening in routine clinical care of youth with type 1 diabetes.

Aims: Caregiver diabetes distress (DD) consists of feeling overwhelmed, sad, and/or concerned; one-third of parents of youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) report severe distress up to 4 years after T1D diagnosis. PAID-PR (Problem Areas in Diabetes Survey-Parent Revised) assesses DD primarily in research settings; however, less is known about its clinical utility. We aimed to identify the feasibility of implementing PAID-PR screening at a diverse, academic US paediatric diabetes center during routine clinic follow-up visits through quality improvement methodologies.

Case report: Early molecular confirmation and sodium polystyrene sulfonate management of systemic pseudohypoaldosteronism type I.

Introduction: Type 1 pseudohypoaldosteronism (PHA) consists of resistance to aldosterone. Neonatal presentation is characterized by salt wasting, hyperkalemia, and metabolic acidosis with high risk of mortality. Type 1 PHA can be autosomal dominant (renal type 1) or autosomal recessive (systemic type 1).

Case Report: Insulin hypersensitivity in youth with type 1 diabetes.

Objective: Immediate type I, type III, and delayed type IV hypersensitivity reactions to insulin are rare, but potentially serious complications of exogenous insulin administration required for the treatment of type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Methods: We present four cases of insulin hypersensitivity reactions occurring in youth with T1D and a literature review of this topic.

Results: Insulin hypersensitivity reactions included types I, III, and IV with presentations ranging from localized urticaria, erythematous nodules, and eczematous plaques to anaphylaxis with respiratory distress.

Weekly Growth Hormone (Lonapegsomatropin) Causes Severe Transient Hyperglycemia in a Child with Obesity.

Introduction: A 12-year-and-9-month-old non-Hispanic black male with a history of growth hormone deficiency, pituitary hypoplasia, prediabetes, obesity, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia was initiated on weekly growth hormone (lonapegsomatropin-tcgd) and then transiently developed symptomatic hyperglycemia to 500 mg/dL. We aimed to describe this medication's effect.

Case Presentation: He was born full term and appropriate for gestational age.

Case of an unreported genetic variant of salt losing 3-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency.

Salt losing 3-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency (HSD3B2) is a rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, seen in <0.5% of cases. We present a 7-year-old male diagnosed with HSD3B2 deficiency, not identified by state newborn screen, due to a novel variant identified in the HSD3B2 gene (c.
