Urinary growth hormone estimation in diagnosing severe growth hormone deficiency.
Urinary growth hormone was measured in 54 children with short stature who had growth hormone deficiency that was initially diagnosed pharmacologically (arginine and L-dopa) and physiologically (mean growth hormone concentration during sleep evaluated twice). Based on the growth hormone response to pharmacological tests the subjects were subdivided into three groups: group A, 20 subjects with no...

With the development of recombinant GH in the mid-1980s, in...
متن کاملAdult Growth Hormone Deficiency
Adult growth hormone deficiency (AGHD) is an heterogeneous clinical entity characterized by increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, alterations in body composition, osteoporosis and impaired quality of life. In order to characterize higher risk subpopulations we studied 77 patients with AGHD, 35 with childhood onset (AGHD-CO): CA 18-44 yr.; 13 females and 22 males, and 42 with adult o...
