Continuing the success of Journal of Endocrinology and Journal of Molecular Endocrinology

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology 6 Metabolism

I I N F A N T boys, a transient increase of gonadotropins, especially L H , occurs during the first months of life (1). A striking elevation of plasma androgens is associated wi th this increase (2). I n the same age group we also found enhanced testicular activity (3). Testicular testosterone concentrations were maximal in boys 1-3 months of age, wi th peak values similar to those in pubertal ...

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism

H A L T H Y full term infants have transient activation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis leading to sex differences in the secretion of gonadotropins (1, 2) and sex hormones (3, 4). Forest et al. ( 3 ) were the first to demonstrate that in infant boys the characteristic rise in L H is associated with a transient but striking elevation of plasma testosterone. These findings have been co...

A bright future ahead for Journal of Molecular Endocrinology.

The European Journal of Endocrinology: changing of the guard.

The future influences the present just as much as the past, according to a quote attributed to Friedrich Nietzsche. This is also applicable to The European Journal of Endocrinology. Under the inspiring guidance of Paolo Beck-Peccoz, the journal evolved from Acta Endocrinologica (Copenhagen) steered by Albert Burger and Christian Binder. The journal is now moving further along the path of histor...

International Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology: Excellence, accessibility, expansion, and evolution

Two years ago, the International Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology (IJPE) was launched to provide the first fully electronic, open access journal for the field in an era of evolution in media and global medical interaction. IJPE was launched with the incredible support of Hindawi Publishing Corporation and has quickly become a leading journal in our field. IJPE has rapidly evolved with the hel...
