Summary

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplesia (CAH) is a group of automosal recessive disorders that develop due to a deficiency of one of the five enyzmes necessary for cortisol synthesis in the adrenal cortex. Research indicates a predisposition in children and adolescents with CAH towards adverse metabolic changes such as obesity, hypertension, insulin resistance and increased intima-media thickness. This study aims to compare the extent to which children and adolescents with CAH are effected in terms of respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, exercise capasity, physical fitness and physical activity levels compared o their matched healthy individuals.
