Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Observational, retrosopective, single-centre, non-profit study focused on the frequency of Central Precocious Puberty idiopathic, or associated to Neurodevelopmental Syndromes and Pathologies, and comparison of diagnostic and developmental characteristics of patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study enrolls both male and female patients referred to the Pediatrics Unit of the IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Policlinico di Sant'Orsola between 01/01/2013 and 31/12/2023 for Central Precocious Puberty and treated with GnRH analouge. The primary aim of the study is to Assess the frequency of diagnosis of idiopathic or syndromic Central Precocious Puberty in the last decade. The secondary aims are to Compare clinical, laboratory and instrumental characteristics at diagnosis and in follow-up between patients with idiopathic and syndromic PPC, and to identifying possible pathogenetic factors characterising different forms of Central Precocious Puberty.
