Abstract:Objective To investigate the follow-up markers of rapidly progressive central precocious puberty (RP-CPP) in female children. Methods The clinical data of 108 female children with precocious puberty in Shenzhen Sixth People’s Hospital from June 2013 to June 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. All children were followed up for 6 months without intervention. Among them, 66 cases had RP-CPP, 42 children had slow progressive central precocious puberty (SP-CPP). Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were used to analyze the related factors of RP-CPP. The changes of disease-related indicators were compared between the two groups of children after 6 months without intervention. Results The difference between bone age and actual age of onset (BA-CA), base value of luteinizing hormone (LH), base value of follicular estrogen (FE), LH/FE, standard deviation integral of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I SDS), LH peak/follitropin peak, and maximal follicle diameter were different between the SP-CPP and RP-CPP patients (P < 0.05). High LH and high IGF-I SDS were the risk factors for RP-CPP (P < 0.05). After 6-month follow-up, the differences of height, breast stage, △ BA/ △ CA, LH and ovarian volume in the RP-CPP children were significantly greater than those in the SP-CPP children, the difference in the predicted adult height (PAH) in the RP-CPP children was smaller than that in the SP-CPP children (P < 0.05). Conclusions High LH and high IGF-I SDS are the risk factors for RP-CPP. The progression of the disease may be predicted by monitoring the changes of height, breast stage, △ BA/ △ CA, LH, PAH and ovarian volume in children with CPP.
