Despite the number of reported data concerning idiopathic central precocious puberty (CPP) in girls, major questions remain including its diagnosis, factors, and indications of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) analog treatment.
A retrospective, single-center study was carried out on 493 girls with CPP.
Eleven girls (2.2%) were aged less than 3 years. Breast development was either isolated (Group 0, n = 99), or associated with one sign, pubic hair development, growth rate greater than 2 standard deviation score (SDS) or bone age (BA) >2 years above chronological age, (Group 1, n = 187), two signs (Group 2, n = 142) or three signs (Group 3, n = 65). The interval between onset of puberty and evaluation, body mass index (BMI) SDS, plasma luteinising hormone (LH) concentrations (basal and peak) and LH/ follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) peak ratio after GnRH test, plasma estradiol and uterus length were significantly greater in Groups 2 and 3 than in Groups 0 and 1 respectively. 211 (42.8%) patients were obese and/or had excessive weight gain during the year before puberty. Obese girls more often had BA advance of >2 years (p = 0.0004) and pubic hair development (p = 0.003) than the others. BMI did not correlate with LH or with LH/FSH peak ratio. Girls with familial history of early puberty (41.4%) had greater frequencies of pubertal LH/FSH peak ratios (p = 0.02) than the others. During the 31 years of the study, there was no increase in the frequency of CPP or variation in its characteristics.
Obesity is associated with a higher BA advance and higher frequency of pubic or axillary hair development but not with LH secretion, suggesting that obesity accelerates adrenarche but not the maturation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. The LH/FSH peak ratio was more frequently pubertal in girls with a familial history of early puberty, suggesting that this maturation depends on genetic factors.
尽管已经有大量关于特发性中枢性性早熟(CPP)的报告数据,但仍存在许多问题,包括其诊断、发病因素和促性腺激素释放激素(GnRH)类似物治疗的指征。
对 493 例 CPP 女孩进行了回顾性单中心研究。
11 例(2.2%)女孩年龄小于 3 岁。乳房发育单纯性(0 组,n=99),或伴单一征象,阴毛发育,生长速度大于 2 个标准差评分(SDS)或骨龄(BA)比实际年龄大 2 年以上(1 组,n=187),2 个征象(2 组,n=142)或 3 个征象(3 组,n=65)。青春期开始至评估的时间间隔、体质指数(BMI)SDS、促性腺激素释放激素(GnRH)试验后血浆黄体生成素(LH)浓度(基础和峰值)和 LH/卵泡刺激素(FSH)峰值比、血浆雌二醇和子宫长度在 2 组和 3 组均显著大于 0 组和 1 组。211 例(42.8%)患者在性发育前一年肥胖和/或体重增加过多。肥胖女孩 BA 提前大于 2 年(p=0.0004)和阴毛发育(p=0.003)的发生率更高。BMI 与 LH 或 LH/FSH 峰值比均无相关性。有家族性性早熟史的女孩(41.4%)青春期 LH/FSH 峰值比的频率更高(p=0.02)。在 31 年的研究期间,CPP 的频率没有增加,其特征也没有变化。
肥胖与 BA 提前更高和阴毛或腋毛发育的频率更高有关,但与 LH 分泌无关,提示肥胖加速肾上腺皮质功能亢进,但不加速下丘脑-垂体-卵巢轴的成熟。有家族性性早熟史的女孩 LH/FSH 峰值比更倾向于青春期,提示这种成熟取决于遗传因素。
