- Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathies: Autoimmune diseases affecting multiple endocrine organs. Type I is characterized by childhood onset and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (candidiasis, chronic mucocutaneous), while type II exhibits any combination of adrenal insufficiency (addison'S disease), lymphocytic thyroiditis (thyroiditis, autoimmune;), hypoparathyroidism; and gonadal failure. In both types organ-specific antibodies against a variety of endocrine glands have been detected. The type II syndrome differs from type I in that it is associated with HLA-A1 and B8 haplotypes, onset is usually in adulthood, and candidiasis is not present.
- Clinical guidelines are the recommended starting point to understand initial steps and current protocols in any disease or procedure:
