    Abstract Background: Women with X-chromosome monosomy or Turner syndrome (TS) are at increased risk for aortic dilation and dissection. To better understand the pathology and develop tools to monitor the risk of aortic disease, we investigated N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) (NT-proBNP) levels in women with TS and healthy female controls.
    Methods: We evaluated NT-proBNP levels in women with karyotype-proven TS and healthy female volunteers in relation to ascending aortic diameter and descending aortic diameter measured by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging.
    Results: The NT-proBNP levels were strongly and positively correlated with ascending aortic diameter and descending aortic diameter in both cohorts. The TS group (n = 114, age 37.4 ± 12 yr) had greater body surface area-indexed aortic diameters and higher NT-proBNP levels than the control group (n = 27, age 46.4 ± 11 years): 88.3 ± 62.7 versus 53.5 ± 35 pg/mL, P = .0003. Within the TS group, NT-proBNP levels were higher in those with dilated ascending aorta (n = 42, 112.4 ± 75.7 pg/mL) compared with those with normal aortic dimensions (n = 72, 74.2 ± 49 pg/mL, P = .0014). Abnormally high NT-pro BNP levels were seen in 3 of 4 TS women who presented with previously undetected aortic aneurysm and/or dissection.
    Conclusions: The NT-proBNP levels are positively associated with aortic diameters in women with and without TS, suggesting a role for BNP in arterial wall homeostasis. Further study is necessary to determine whether NT-proBNP measurement may be used to monitor aortic diameter and/or detect aortic pathology in individuals at risk for aortic disease.

    Abstract The present observations are derived from 273 girls and women aged 7-40 years participating in the National Institutes of Health natural history study of Turner syndrome (TS) in the interval 2001-2011. There was a higher percentage of GH use among individuals in the pediatric age group (7-17, n = 118, 83%) compared to young adult women with prior GH use (18-40, n = 155, 61%). The major factor in this divergence seems to be a trend toward earlier diagnosis of TS in the younger age group. We find a striking association between history of GH use and lower total body and abdominal fat mass in young adults with TS approximately one decade after discontinuation of GH treatment. The interpretation of this observation is limited by the fact that our study subjects were not randomly assigned to GH treatment. There may be a bias involving poor health care, childhood obesity, delayed diagnosis, absent GH treatment and persistent adult obesity. Further studies on the socioeconomic factors implicated in patterns of GH use and non-use for girls with TS are needed to illuminate this important issue.

    Abstract Background: Emerging trials suggest fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a promising treatment for ulcerative colitis; however, there is a paucity of data in Crohn disease (CD).
    Objective: The objectives of this article are to determine whether single-dose FMT improves clinical and endoscopic outcomes in CD patients and to identify meaningful changes in the microbiome in response to FMT.
    Methods: We performed a prospective, open-label, single-center study. Ten CD patients underwent FMT and were evaluated for clinical response (defined as decrease in Harvey-Bradshaw Index score ≥3 at one month post-FMT) and microbiome profile (16S ribosomal RNA sequencing) at one month post-FMT.
    Results: Three of 10 patients responded to FMT. Two of 10 patients had significant adverse events requiring escalation of therapy. On microbiome analysis, bacterial communities of responders had increased relative abundance of bacteria commonly found in donor gut microbiota.
    Conclusions: Single-dose FMT in this cohort of CD patients showed modest effect and potential for harm. Responders tended to have lower baseline alpha diversity, suggesting baseline perturbation of microbiota may be an indicator of potential responders to FMT in this patient population. Controlled trials are needed to further assess the efficacy and safety of FMT in CD and determine whether FMT is a viable option in this patient population.

    Abstract The higher prevalence of autoimmune diseases in women compared to men could be due to effects of ovarian hormones, pregnancy and/or the presence of a second X chromosome. To elucidate the role of these factors, we investigated the prevalence and spectrum of autoimmune diagnoses in women with primary ovarian insufficiency associated with X chromosome monosomy (Turner syndrome, TS, n = 244) and women with karyotypically normal (46,XX) primary ovarian insufficiency (POI, n = 457) in a prospective study, conducted at the National Institutes of Health. We compared the study group prevalence to normative data for the U.S. population of women. Chronic lymphocytic (Hashimoto's) thyroiditis (HT) occurred in 37% of women with TS vs. 15% with POI (P < 0.0001); HT prevalence in both ovarian insufficiency groups significantly exceeded that in U.S. population of women (5.8%). Inflammatory bowel (IBD, 4%) and celiac disease (CD, 2.7%) were significantly increased in TS, but not in POI. No other autoimmune diagnosis, including Graves' disease or Type 1 diabetes appears to be significantly increased in either group. Women with TS had higher pro-inflammatory IL6 and TGF β1 levels (p < 0.0001 for both), and lower anti-inflammatory IL10 and TGF β2 levels (p < 0.005 for both) compared to POI and to normal volunteers. Lifetime estrogen exposure and parity were significantly lower in TS compared to POI, which were in turn lower than the general population of women. The finding that lymphocytic thyroiditis is greatly increased in both women with TS and POI suggests that factors associated with ovarian insufficiency per se promote this form of autoimmunity. The absence of a normal second X-chromosome further contributes to increased autoimmunity in TS.
