BACKGROUND/AIMS: The diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in adolescence are controversial, primarily because the diagnostic pathological features used in adult women may be normal pubertal physiological events. Hence, international pediatric and adolescent specialty societies have defined criteria...

Genome-wide association study implicates novel loci and reveals candidate effector genes for longitudinal pediatric bone accrual.
