Table 1_Sex differences in classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia: a multicenter, real-wor

A 2026 analysis of 123 adult patients (77 females, 46 males) with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia from four Italian tertiary centers. The dataset, authored by Chiara Simeoli, compares clinical, metabolic, and hormonal profiles between sexes to identify predictors of biochemical control. It includes anthropometric measurements, glucocorticoid therapy details, and biochemical parameters.

Use Cases

• Analyze sex-specific predictors of disease control based on anthropometric and metabolic parameters mentioned in the description
• Compare rates of overweight/obesity and visceral adiposity between male and female CAH patients based on reported BMI and waist-to-height ratio data
• Investigate the relationship between visceral adiposity and hormonal markers like androstenedione based on the reported statistical association
• Study the role of glucocorticoid therapy formulations and dosing in a real-world adult patient cohort

Strengths

• Includes data from 123 adult patients across four tertiary centers, providing a multicenter perspective
• Contains sex-stratified analysis for 77 females and 46 males with reported age ranges
• Reports specific clinical metrics such as BMI (26.6 vs. 24.4 kg/m²), waist-to-height ratio (0.55 vs. 0.51), and disease control rates (26.2% vs. 17.6%)
• Uses real-world clinical records, likely reflecting patient management outside controlled trials

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data is limited to 28.0 KB, indicating a very small dataset with limited scope
