Welcome from the President Dear global endocrinology colleagues and friends: Welcome to Washington DC! On behalf of the Program Organizing Committee, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 10th International Meeting of Pediatric Endocrinology. This auspicious occasion Information General continues a tradition of Joint Meetings initiated in 1981, appropriately updated for 2017 to “International Meeting” with a theme: Celebrating the Truly Worldwide Community of Pediatric Endocrinology. This scientific gathering unites the world’s Pediatric Endocrinology Societies, including host Pediatric Endocrine Society (PES), European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE), Australasian Paediatric Endocrine Group (APEG), Asia Pacific Pediatric Endocrine Society (APPES), African Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Endocrinology (ASPAE), Chinese Society of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism (CSPEM), Japanese Society for Pediatric Endocrinology (JSPE), the Sociedad Latinoamericana de Endocrinología Pediátrica (SLEP), Arab Society of Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes (ASPED) and Indian Society Pediatric and Adolescent Endocrinology (ISPAE). The diligent commitment of your Program Organizing Committee members and others have created an exciting meeting featuring internationally renowned experts sharing the very latest advances, challenges, and controversies in the field of pediatric endocrinology. Virtually every aspect of our specialty is addressed in Plenary, Topic Symposia, Yearbook, Controversy, and New Perspective sessions and a panoply of Abstract Free Communication and Poster sessions. In addition, I encourage attendees to take full advantage of opportunities for interaction and discussion in pre-meeting Special Interest Group meetings and ever-popular Meet-the-Expert sessions. And while you are in the beautiful city of Washington DC - home to countless fascinating museums, monuments, and historical treasures – I also encourage you to enjoy all that Washington DC has to offer. In this important time to affirm and support the global sharing of knowledge, your participation in this Meeting is especially significant and appreciated. On behalf of the host Pediatric Endocrine Society and the Program Organizing Committee, I thank you for joining in this celebration of the worldwide community of pediatric endocrinology! David B.

We evaluated the prevalence of alterations in the mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid axes and their impact on pro-inflam- matory, endothelial damage and oxidative stress parameters in hypertensive children. Methods: 306 children (5-16 years old); Group 1: Hypertensives (n=111); Group 2: normotensives with hypertensive parents (n=101); Group 3: normotensives with normotensives parents (n= 95). Fasting blood samples were drawn for hormone measurements (aldosterone, plasma renin activity (PRA), cortisol (F), cortisone (E)); inflammation vari- ______________________________________ ables (hsRCP, adiponectin, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α); endothelial damage (PAI-I, P1-d1-163 Adrenals and HPA Axis 1 MMP9 and MMP2 activities) and oxidative stress (malondialdehyde). Famil- The role of S-palmitoylation of human ial hyperaldosteronism type 1 (FH-1) was diagnosed when aldosterone/PRA ratio >10 was associated with the chimeric CYP11B1/CYP11B2 gene. The glucocorticoid receptor in mediating the non- 11β-HSD2 activity was considered altered when the F/E ratio exceeded the genomic actions of glucocorticoids mean + 2 SD with respect to group 3.

She has been an enthusiastic fighter for the improvement of child health not only in Europe, but also with a global perspective. Ruth Illig was born on 12 November 1924 in Nuremberg, Germany. Her childhood and adolescence in Germany was affected by the Second World War. During the war, she was brought from Germany to Switzerland to recover from the stressful situation and physical weakening. After the war, she spent a significant time of her academic training in Bern and Zurich. Following graduation from medical school she was accepted by Prof. Guido Fanconi for a pediatric residency at the University Children’s Hospital (Kinderspital) Zurich, Switzerland. She was promoted to a fellow and tenure position and worked closely with Prof. Andrea Prader. In these early years, she focused on growth disorders and she established the endocrine laboratory using radioimmunoassays for determination of growth hormone and insulin.

Hypothalamic dysfunction causes dysregulation of energy balance and endocrine deficiencies, in- cluding hypogonadism. Although hypogonadism is prevalent in males and females with PWS, knowledge about this condition is limited. In this review, we outline the current knowledge on the clinical, biochemical, genetic and histological features of hypogonadism in PWS and its treatment. This was based on current literature and the proceedings and outcomes of the International PWS annual conference held in November 2019. We also present our expert opinion regarding the diag- nosis, treatment, care and counselling of children and adults with PWS-associated hypogonadism. Finally, we highlight additional areas of interest related to this topic and make recommendations for future studies.

Email: [email protected] Abstract This manuscript investigates clinical decisions and the management of ‘intersex’ children at the University Children’s Hospital Zurich between 1945 and 1970. This was an era of rapid change in paediatric medicine, something that was mirrored in Zurich. Andrea Prader, the principal figure in this paper, started his career during the late 1940s and was instrumental in moving the hospital towards focusing more on expertise in chronic diseases. Starting in 1950, he helped the Zurich hospital to become the premier centre for the treatment of so-called ‘intersex’ children. It is this treatment, and, in particular, the clinical decision-making that is the centre of our article. This field of medicine was itself not stable. Rapid development of diagnostic tools led to the emergence of new diagnostic categories, the availability of new drugs changed the management of the children’s bodies and an increased number of medical experts became involved in decision-making, a particular focus lay with the role of the children themselves and of course with their families.
