The Severity of Congenital Hypothyroidism With Gland-In-Situ Predicts Molecular Yield by Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing.

Introduction: Congenital hypothyroidism with gland-in-situ (CH-GIS) is usually attributed to mutations in the genes involved in thyroid hormone production. The diagnostic yield of targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) varied widely between studies. We hypothesized that the molecular yield of targeted NGS would depend on the severity of CH.

Effects of advanced carbohydrate counting on glucose control and quality of life in children with type 1 diabetes.

Objective: The effect of advanced carbohydrate counting (ACC) on metabolic and quality of life (QOL) outcomes is uncertain in children with type 1 diabetes. Our aim was to determine whether ACC would improve HbA1c and QOL scores as compared with standard nutrition in this population.

Methods: We randomized 87 patients using pump and rapid-acting analogs in a 1 year randomized multicenter study (age 9.
