简要总结
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a genetic rare disease, which alters the adrenal production of gluco and mineralo corticoids. The treatment consists in supplementing children using hydrocortisone. Despite care for these children has improve substantially across decades, short adult height still remains an important consequence of the disease. About 20 % of patients have an AH below 2 standard deviations compared to their expected height.
In the OPALE model study, the investigators have collected data from a cohort of 496 French patients, born between 1970 and 1991 and with a known genotype. Using their age, sex, growth, disease, bone maturation and pubertal data, they have built a model which allows to predict their AH using data available at 8 years of age. This model has shown that the currently used formula to calculate the predicted AH (Bayley Pineau's method) is not applicable to children with CAH.
In this project, the investigators plan to use the prediction model to compare the AH in patients who have received GH treatment to their predicted AH using the model.
The hypothesis is that GH improves the AH in such patients. Existing cohorts have shown improved growth celerity, and growth expectation using the Bayley-Pineau formula), but this has not been shown on the actual AH.
This study will allow to reinforce the investigators' hypothesis.

结局指标
主要结局
Adult height (AH) gain
时间窗: up to 18 years
Difference between AH predicted by the OPALE model, and observed AH defined as (i) the height recorded after age 20 in boys or 18 in girls; (ii) the height recorded when bone age (BA) is ≥ 18 years in boys and 16 years in girls (99.6% of AH) (10); or (iii) the height measured after growth velocity drop to ≤ 1 cm/year
次要结局
- Number of treatment withdrawal due to adverse events(up to 6 years of GH treatment)
