The impact of neonatal 17-hydroxyprogesterone cutoff determination in a public newborn screening program for congenital adrenal hyperplasia in Southern Brazil: 3 years’ experience

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) occurs due to enzyme defects in adrenal steroidogenesis. The 21-hydroxylase deficiency accounts for 90–95% of cases, triggering accumulation of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). Early diagnosis through neonatal screening allows adequate treatment and reduced morta...
