A comprehensive survey was carried out to investigate the genetic etiology of short stature in children by whole exon sequencing of a core family cohort to find and study mutations in multiple genes to assess their potential correlations to low height in children. The study included 56 pediatric patients from the Department of Pediatrics at the Zhangzhou Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. The participants met strict inclusion criteria, including age, Han Chinese ethnicity, low height standard deviation score, and the absence of known causes for short stature.

This study analyzed the effect of miR-19b on the protective effect of Exendin-4 on islet cells in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice. Twenty-four NOD/LT mice were randomized, according to the random number table, into a control group (4 µg/kg•day), a low-dose group (2 µg/kg•day Exendin-4), a medium-dose group (4 µg/kg•day Exendin-4) and a high-dose group (8 µg/kg•day Exendin-4) (n=6), with miR-19b expression interfered (an interference group) except for the control group. RT-qPCR was used to detect interference results and different doses of Exendin-4 were given for 8 weeks of intervention after the interference.

Background: This paper aims to investigate the correlation between serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and leptin and the incidence of idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) in girls, and to explore the clinical values in the diagnosis of ICPP.

Methods: A total of 48 girls with ICPP were selected in our hospital from March 2014 to March 2015 to serve as ICPP group. At the same time, 48 girls with the same age distribution were selected as control group.
