Abstract:
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive disease due to a defect in bile acid metabolism. Worldwide, more than 300 patients have been described. Mutations in the CYP27A1 gene result in sterol 27-hydroxylase deficiency leading to the accumulation of cholestanol in multiple body tissues. Premature cataracts, chronic diarrhea, tendon xanthomas, and neurological deterioration are the predominant clinical features. There are several disease stages, from being nearly asymptomatic in the early childhood years to severe disability in later stages of life. Adult CTX patients are often misdiagnosed initially, especially when tendon xanthomasa are absent. CTX should be considered in all patients with premature cataracts and in patients with neurological features such as spasticity, early-onset dementia, ataxia, or Parkinsonism.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the hormonal, metabolic, and inflammatory response to surgery—commonly known as the surgical stress response. The changes in protein, carbohydrate, and fat metabolism to provide fuel for oxidation are outlined as well as changes in salt and water metabolism. Psychological sequelae of fatigue and malaise are also common in patients undergoing surgery. Attenuating the metabolic and endocrine changes associated with surgery may reduce postoperative morbidity and expedite recovery; the choice of anaesthetic drugs and techniques (regional vs general anaesthesia) and the increasing use of laparoscopic surgery have all been used to try to achieve this objective. The most common metabolic disease which anaesthetists have to manage is diabetes mellitus (DM) and its pathophysiology and medical management, as well as that of the related metabolic syndrome are discussed. Adrenal tumours are rare but usually require surgical excision. Phaeochromocytomas present unique anaesthetic challenges, but pre-, intra-, and postoperatively in terms of fluid management and blood pressure control. Conn’s syndrome (primary hyperaldosteronism) can also result in hypertension and electrolyte disturbances. Cushing’s disease (glucocorticoid excess) presents with the clinical effects of steroid excess and many patients have concomitant DM. Finally, perioperative steroid supplementation for patients already taking steroids and undergoing surgery is discussed.

Abstract:
This chapter summarizes endocrine physiology that is of particular relevance to anaesthesia. Disorders of the adrenal cortex and medulla, pituitary and thyroid are described with perioperative management considerations highlighted. Current guidelines in perioperative steroid replacement are included. Diabetes is a particularly common problem encountered in clinical practice. Diabetic complications, pre-assessment and perioperative management aims are included. The surgical stress response is summarized with details of the neuroendocrine changes and their modification with anaesthetic technique. Consequences of perioperative hypothermia and use of therapeutic hypothermia are detailed.

Abstract:
Patients who undergo kidney transplantation have laboratory, bone, and soft tissue abnormalities that characterize chronic kidney disease mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). After successful transplantation, abnormal values of parathyroid hormone, fibroblast growth factor 23, calcium, phosphate, vitamin D sterols, and sex hormones generally improve, but abnormalities often persist. Cardiovascular risk remains high and is influenced by prevalent vascular calcification, and fracture risk increases due to a combination of abnormal bone ‘quality’, compounded by immunosuppressive drugs and reductions in bone mineral density. Patients with well managed CKD-MBD before transplantation generally have a smoother post-transplant course, and it is useful to assess patients soon after transplantation for risk factors relevant to the general population and to patients with CKD. Targeted laboratory assessment, bone densitometry, and X-ray of the spine are useful for guiding therapy to minimize post-transplant effects of CKD-MBD. To reduce fracture risk, general measures include glucocorticoid dose minimization, attaining adequate 25(OH)D levels, and maintaining calcium and phosphate values in the normal range. Calcitriol or its analogues and antiresorptive agents such as bisphosphonates may protect bone from glucocorticoid effects and ongoing hyperparathyroidism, but the efficacy of these therapies to reduce fractures is unproven. Alternate therapies with fewer data include denosumab, strontium ranelate, teriparatide, oestrogen or testosterone hormone replacement therapy, tibolone, selective oestrogen receptor modulators, and cinacalcet. Parathyroidectomy may be necessary, but is generally avoided within the first post-transplant year. A schema is presented in this chapter that aims to minimize harm when allocating therapy.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the current understanding of the mechanisms of endocrine disruption on the brain and nervous system are presented. Because the overwhelming majority of mechanistic studies on EDCs have focused on the actions mediated by nuclear hormone receptors, this mechanisms is described in detail. The chapter also discusses the classic transcriptional mechanisms of steroid action and the impact of EDCs on rapid signaling (non-genomic) mechanisms. It presents an overview of the enzymes and pathways involved in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones, which are critical to proper functioning of the HPA and HPG axis, and the neuroactive steroids synthesized and active in the mammalian brain. The potential for EDCs to alter metabolic enzymes, with a focus on possible targets in the metabolic blood-brain barrier, is presented as a potential, though largely unexplored, mode of EDC action in the brain.

Abstract:
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble steroid pro-hormone integral to physiological health, fulfilling a central role in skeletal mineralization, bone metabolism, and immune biology. Although vitamin D is synthesized photochemically in the skin and some is absorbed from dietary sources, vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency are very common. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a strong association between vitamin D and kidney and heart disease, and some supplementation studies have suggested that repletion may prevent and/or ameliorate cardiorenal injury. This chapter focuses on vitamin D biology and discusses the many associations of vitamin D perturbation with diseases of humans.

Abstract:
Neuroscientists have treated the brain in isolation from the rest of the body, while endocrinology and general medicine have viewed the body largely without regard to the influence of systemic physiology and pathophysiology on higher brain centers outside of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. But now there is greater recognition of brain–body interactions affecting the limbic and cognitive systems of brain and altering systemic physiology; these are conceptualized as allostasis and allostatic load and overload. These concepts look at both the interactions of brain and body to stressors and health-promoting and health-damaging behaviors, and they help integrate behavior and mood with systemic functions. These interactions involve genetic predispositions and epigenetic alterations mediated by circulating steroid and metabolic hormones. Comorbidity and multi-morbidity of disorders will be illustrated by the relationship of systemic and brain insulin resistance to the psychopathology of depression and to the increased risk for dementia.

Abstract:
Enabling achievement of full height potential in a child with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the major and most challenging goals for the paediatric nephrologist. Short stature is associated with psychological maladjustment and with increased morbidity and mortality. The causes of poor growth are multifactorial and include poor nutrition, and metabolic, haematological, and endocrine disturbances. The most vulnerable times are the periods of most rapid growth, that is, infancy and puberty. Growth during infancy is principally dependent on nutrition so many infants need supplemental enteral feeding. Growth delay correlates with severity of CKD, with those on dialysis faring the worst such that by CKD stage 5, approximately 25% of patients are below the normal range for height. Height achieved post transplant is dependent on graft function and is better in younger children and those who have the best height attainment pre transplant. The use of steroid-free immunosuppressive regimens is encouraging. The prognosis for final height is improving.
