- Very little is known about the epidemiology of adrenal crises (AC) and adrenal insufficiency (AI) in adolescents and young adults.MethodsData on all admissions to Australian hospitals between 2000/1 to 2019/20 for a principal diagnosis of AI (including AC) in 10-24 year olds were extracted from a national repository. Age and sex-specific rates and age-adjusted rates were compared.FindingsOver the study, there were 3386 admissions for a principal diagnosis of AI; 24.0% (n=812) were for an AC and 50·7% (n=1718) were for secondary AI. Age-adjusted AI admissions increased from 31·70/million in 2000/1 to 54·68/million in 2019/20 (p<0·0001). Age-adjusted AC admissions also increased, most notably in the second decade (from 5·80/million in 2010/11 to 15·75/million in 2019/20) (p<0·00001). Average AI and AC admission rates were comparable between the sexes, but rates increased significantly in females, especially in those aged 20 to 24 years, whose AC rate in 2019/20 (39·65/million) was significantly higher than the corresponding rate in 2000/1 (3·15/million) (p<0·00001). Average age-adjusted SAI admission rates were higher in males (23·92/million) than females (15·47/million) (p<0·00001). However, SAI admission rates increased only among females (from 11·81/million to 22·12/million in 2019/20), with an increase in 20-24 year old females in the second decade from 5·07/million in 2010 to 20·42/million (p<0·00001). Age adjusted admissions for congenital adrenal hyperplasia, primary AI (PAI) and drug-induced AI did not change significantly over the study.InterpretationAC/AI admissions increased over the first two decades of this century in the emerging adult population, particularly among females who also experienced a marked increase in AC admission rates, most evident in the second decade. Although uncertain, possible explanations include: dose of glucocorticoid replacement; non-adherence to therapy; psychosocial factors; and difficulty in transition to adult services. Admissions for SAI also increased, while rates of PAI and CAH remained constant.

- ContextP450 oxidoreductase deficiency (PORD) is a rare genetic disorder that is associated with significant morbidity. However there has been limited analysis of reported PORD cases.ObjectiveTo determine, based on the cohort of reported PORD cases, genotype-phenotype relationships for skeletal malformations, maternal virilisation in pregnancy, adrenal insufficiency, and disorders of sexual development (DSD).Data SourcesPubMed and Web of Science from January 2004 to February 2018.Study SelectionPublished case reports/series of patients with PORD. Eligible patients were unique, had biallelic mutations, and their clinical features were reported.Data ExtractionPatient data were manually extracted from the text of case reports/series. A malformation score, representing the severity of skeletal malformations, was calculated for each patient.Data SynthesisOf the 211 patients published in the literature, 90 were eligible for inclusion. More than 60 unique mutations were identified in this cohort. Four groups of mutations were identified, through regression modeling, as having significantly different skeletal malformation scores. Maternal virilization in pregnancy, reported for 21% of patients, was most common for R457H mutations. Adrenal insufficiency occurred for the majority of patients (78%) and was typically mild, with homozygous R457H mutations being the least deficient. DSD affected most patients (72%), but were less common for males (46XY) with homozygous R457H mutations.ConclusionsPORD is a complex disorder with many possible mutations affecting a large number of enzymes. By analyzing the cohort of reported PORD cases, this study identified clear relationships between genotype and several important phenotypic features.
