Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pediatric endocrine diseases encompass a broad spectrum of conditions that impact growth, metabolism, and hormonal regulation from infancy through adolescence. Recent advancements in diagnostic imaging, molecular genetics, and novel therapeutic approaches have significantly improved our ability to detect and manage these disorders at earlier stages, leading to better patient outcomes. Despite these developments, challenges remain in optimizing individualized treatment strategies, understanding the long-term effects of pediatric endocrine disorders, and addressing the impact of hormonal imbalances on overall health and development.
This Special Issue will explore the latest clinical insights into pediatric endocrine diseases, emphasizing innovations in diagnosis, treatment, and patient care. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, congenital and acquired endocrine disorders, growth- and puberty-related abnormalities, metabolic syndromes, thyroid disorders, and the role of emerging technologies in endocrine evaluation. We welcome original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and case reports that contribute to the evolving landscape of pediatric endocrinology.
I look forward to receiving your valuable contributions to this Special Issue.
