• Weight Gain

  Abnormal weight gain continued despite a caloric intake of about 65 kcal/kg per day. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The abnormality in energy expenditure and/or energy intake responsible for this weight gain is unknown.Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate energy expenditure in children with PHP-1a compared with obese controls.Patients:We studied 6 obese [experts.umich.edu]

  He also had congenital hypothyroidism, round face, full cheeks, shortness of limbs, mild developmental delay, and muscular hypotonia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The condition causes short stature, round face, obesity, developmental delay, and short hand bones. Symptoms depend on whether you inherit the gene from your mother or father. Type Ib involves resistance to PTH only in the kidneys. [medlineplus.gov]

• Short Neck

  Her physical examination noted a stocky physique, broad chest, short neck and short digits. Two years later, skin examination revealed subcutaneous nodules and acanthosis nigricans.Investigations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Short stature with a short neck, a round face, chubby cheeks, and a depressed nasal bridge are usually present. There may be cognitive deficits and some patients are considered to be mentally retarded. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Because of her clinical and biochemical presentation we suspected pseudohypoparathyroidism and additional workup confirmed our diagnosis. [omicsonline.org]

Management and treatment Treatment is based on maintaining normocalcemia and, when possible, normalizing serum levels of PTH, with an active form of vitamin D (alfacalcidol or calcitriol) and calcium supplementation. [orpha.net]

However, it is possible that a subset of these patients may qualify for GH treatment based on another FDA approved indication, and certain patients may qualify for treatment on a research basis in the future. [bioportfolio.com]

Treatment Treatment Options: Treatment focuses on normalization of calcium and phosphate serum levels. A deficiency of vitamin D should also be corrected and has been reported to correct at least some of the lens opacities. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Lenticular cataracts develop in patients with a long duration of disease that have not received treatment. 5 The goal of treatment in every type of PHP is to correct hypocalcaemia by administering 1,25-dihydrocholecalciferol (0.01 and 0.1 μg/kg/day) and [analesdepediatria.org]
