Progress in our understanding of adrenal disorders affecting pregnant women has been hindered by three major hurdles: the phenotypical and biochemical overlap between pregnancy and adrenal pathology, the infrequent presentation of adrenal disorders during pregnancy, and the scarcity of human studies that include pregnant women. Pregnancy-specific adrenal hormone calibrations are lacking. Thus, the evaluation and management of adrenal disorders presenting during pregnancy are challenging. In this thematic issue, prominent experts in adrenal physiology and pathology have joined forces to offer a comprehensive collection of articles covering the current knowledge on adrenal disorders affecting reproductive-age women. This superb collection of reviews makes the perfect clinical companion on pregnancy-related adrenal pathology for a broad range of healthcare providers, from primary care physicians and internists to endocrinologists and gynecologist-obstetricians, regardless of career stage or practice setting.

Cohort profile: Multicenter Networks for Ideal Outcomes of Rare Pediatric Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases in Korea (OUTSPREAD study).
Ann Pediatr Endocrinol Metab
December 2024
Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Children's Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Rare endocrine diseases are complex conditions that require lifelong specialized care due to their chronic nature and associated long-term complications. In Korea, a lack of nationwide data on clinical practice and outcomes has limited progress in patient care. Therefore, the Multicenter Networks for Ideal Outcomes of Pediatric Rare Endocrine and Metabolic Disease (OUTSPREAD) study was initiated.

Background: Distant metastasis occurs in the majority of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), leading to an extremely poor prognosis. However, the key genes driving ACC metastasis remain unclear.
Methods: Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and functional enrichment analysis were conducted to identify ACC metastasis-related genes.

This study presents the longest systematic prospective follow-up of spinal cord disease in adult male ALD patients to date. Standardized yearly quantitative data collection included scoring of the EDSS, SSPROM, 6-min walking test (6MWT), urological and quality of life questionnaires and vibration sense of the hallux. Progression rates were compared between patients with mild (EDSS ≤ 2.

Background: Solid lung lesions are common in clinical practice, and percutaneous thermal ablation has been shown to be an effective treatment for these lesions. While computed tomography (CT)-guided microwave ablation (MWA) therapy is frequently used for adult solid lesions, it is rarely considered for pediatric cases.
Case Presentation: A case of an 8-year-old child with adrenal neuroblastoma and a left upper lung mass.

Introduction: Terrorism and trauma survivors often experience changes in biomarkers of autonomic, inflammatory and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis assessed at various times. Research suggests interactions of these systems in chronic stress.
Study Objective: This unprecedented retrospective study explores long-term stress biomarkers in three systems in terrorism survivors.
