BACKGROUND: A rapid and accurate measurement approach for 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) and related steroids in amount/volume-limited clinic samples is of importance for precise newborn diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and its subtypes in clinic. METHODS: Sixteen steroids (17-OHP, androstenedione, cortisol, tetrahydro-11-deoxycortisol, pregnenolone, progesterone, 11-deoxycorticosterone, corticosterone, 21-deoxycortisol, 11-deoxycortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone, testosterone, aldosterone, 17α-hydroxypregnenolone, dihydrotestosterone and 18-hydroxycorticosterone) were included in the panel of high-throughput microbore ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry...
