Context: Reliable estradiol (E2) reference intervals (RIs) are crucial in pediatric endocrinology.

Objectives: This study aims to develop a sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatographic tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for E2 in serum, to establish graphically represented RI percentiles and annual RIs for both sexes, and to perform a systematic literature comparison.

Methods: First, a UPLC-MS/MS method for E2 was developed.

Glucocorticoids represent a key element in the treatment of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and lead to adrenal suppression. We aimed to assess the differential response profile of adrenal steroids in children with ALL during BFM (Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster) induction treatment. Therefore, we performed liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based steroid profiling of up to seven consecutive leftover morning serum samples derived from 11 patients (pts) with ALL before (day 0) and during induction therapy at days 1-5, 6-12, 13-26, 27-29, 30-35 and 36-40.

Ongoing habitat loss and fragmentation result in rapid population size reductions, which can increase the levels of inbreeding. Consequently, many species are threatened by inbreeding depression, a loss of individual fitness following the mating of close relatives. Here, we investigated inbreeding effects on fitness-related traits throughout the lifetime of the mustard leaf beetle () and mechanisms for the avoidance of inbreeding.
