Introduction. Puberty is a dynamic period of physical growth, sexual maturation, and psychosocial between childhood and adulthood. It is important to understand the primary physiologic changes in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and in adrenal androgen and growth hormone production that underlie the normal pubertal milestones. To address disorders of puberty, assessment of pubertal status needs to be incorporated into routine care of adolescents with chronic disease. The aim of the current paper was to elaborate an practical algorithm for clinicians monitoring for children with known chronic diseases. Material and methods are based on results of the research study regarding hypothalamic-pituitary-peripherical axis in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Our personal data was compared with valuable information from a systemic review on following key-words from Medline database: puberty, JIA, gonades, HPG axis, pubertal disorders. Thus, we designed a practical step-wise approach for pubertal development in children with JIA. Results and discussions. According to our ongoing study, late onset of puberty was noted in 24.44% of JIA pubertal patients. Gender differences revealed more frequent pubertal disorders in boys (36.84%) compared to girls. Serum testosterone in boys revealed low values in 5.3% of cases compared to girls, with significant statistical differences between groups (p<0.00001). The extensive differential diagnosis of delayed puberty requires a systematic and focused approach to evaluation. Six monthly pubertal assessments from the age of 9 years is now recommended as part of the updated international standards and should be included in monitoring of chronic diseases. Conclusions. The clinician should follow a standartized algorithm in order to identify promptly potential pubertal disorders in children with chronic diseases, based on the example of juvenile idiopathic arthritis. |
