RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a disorder that substantially affects women's health. It is particularly diagnosed in young patients. Women with PCOS are burdened with excessive weight gain, overweight and obesity (74%) compared to a healthy female population. Excessive weight influences psychological state and emotional well-being, whereas in the meantime, psychological and behavioral dysfunction is increasingly being diagnosed among patients with PCOS. AIM: To assess depressive symptoms and emotional control among women with PCOS in relation to BMI. METHODS: The study was conducted among 671 self-reported PCOS women. The standardized Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was used to assess depressive disorders. Emotion control was assessed using the Courtauld Emotional Control Scale (CECS). RESULTS: Moderate and severe depressive symptoms were more common in PCOS women with abnormal BMI compared to normal BMI subjects (p < 0.01). In total, 27.1% of obese women had moderate depression and 28.8% had severe depression. Among overweight women, 19.9% suffered from moderate and 25% from severe depressive symptoms. Underweight women also reported moderate (25.6%) and severe (33.3%) depressive signs. There were no statistically significant differences between the body weight of the women studied and the CECS scores. CONCLUSIONS: Depressive symptoms are more common in women with PCOS and abnormal BMI than in women with PCOS and proper BMI. The severity of depressive symptoms increases with BMI, but underweight women with PCOS are also at risk of depressive disorders. The level of suppression of negative emotions is independent of BMI in women with PCOS.

RESUMO

CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD) is a developmental encephalopathy caused by pathogenic variants in the X-linked cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDKL5) gene. This rare disorder occurs more frequently in females than in males. The incidence is estimated to be approximately 1: 40,000-60,000 live births. So far, 50 cases have been described in boys. The clinical course in males tends to be more severe and is often associated with death in the first or second decade of life. The authors present an unreported 2.5-year-old male patient with drug-resistant epilepsy who was diagnosed with a de novo mutation in the CDKL5 gene. First seizures developed in the fifth week of life and have progressed steadily since then. The child's psychomotor development was strongly delayed, and generalized hypotonia was noticed since birth. Brain MRI showed areas of incomplete myelination, posterior narrowing of the corpus callosum, a pineal cyst of up to 3 mm, and open islet lids. Intensive antiseizure medications (ASMs), a ketogenic diet, and steroid therapy were not successful. Short-term improvement was achieved with the implantation of a vagal nerve stimulator (VNS). Due to the progressive course of the disease, the boy requires frequent modification of ASMs.
