We present two cases because 17OHD is the rare cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (1%) and our patients are first cousins (their fathers are brothers). Genetically female patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 17-α hydroxylase enzyme deficiency (17OHD) represent with sexual infantilism, hypertension and genetically male patients represent with male pseudohermaphroditisim, hypertension at pubertal age.

Progression of the diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) demonstrated differences in the individual considered the contribution of genetic predisposition. We aim to study the relationship between the −866G/A polymorphism in the promoter region of the uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) which enhances transcriptional activity and A allele frequency with nerve conduction velocities (NCV) and clinical factors. We compared 370 type 2 diabetic patients with healthy control. Subjective...
