Background: The highest rates of childhood obesity are among children from lower socioeconomic groups. Tier 3 weight management services for children currently rely on an MDT approach that is focused on the management of complications associated with excessive weight, but the resources are generally limited. Evidence suggests that the input in the community is key to empower children, young people, and their families to make healthy lifestyle changes, although the availability...

Primary generalized glucocorticoid resistance is characterized by glucocorticoid excess without any Cushing syndrome. Patients exhibit variable clinical presentation including arterial hypertension, hirsutism or adrenal hyperplasia. Although glucocorticoid resistance has been associated with glucocorticoid receptor (GR) mutations (encoded by NR3C1 gene), only 23 mutations have been reported so far. We have conducted a French National Research Program, referred to as M...
