The role of asprosin and ceramides in the development of growth hormone deficiency in children Background: Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is an endocrine condition, which is defined as a reduction in growth hormone (GH) synthesis; this study aims to... M Al-Jubawi,S Mohammed,R Al-Abedi ...
2 Growth Hormone Deficiency in Childhood In childhood, there are many possible causes, both genetic and environmental, of short stature and a slow growth rate. Careful laboratory and clinical evaluations, including measurements of IGF-1 levels, are required to determine whether the cause is a d...
Growth hormone deficiency in children The foundation for the diagnosis of growth hormone (GH) deficiency in childhood must be auxology, that is, the comparison of the child's growth pattern to ... EJ Richmond,AD Rogol - 《Pituitary》 被引量: 98发表: 2008年 Plasma free insulin-like growth...
OBJECTIVE: The posterior fossa (PF) has been found to be small in various forms of Chiari malformation. Explanations involving a connection between growth hormone deficiency (GHD) and Chiari I malformation (CIM) have been proposed. However, to date, no quantitative analysis of the PF of patients...
of the MRI texture predictive model. In conclusion, these fi ndings indicated that a texture predictive model using MRI texture features was superior for distinguishing children with GHD from those with ISS compared with the model developed using clinical features.IntroductionGrowth hormone def i cie...
Endogenous growth hormone was examined after two days' pretreatment with stilbesteral. Four of the 25 short children with CLP had total, and four had partial, GH deficiency. Three of the GH-deficient patients were also deficient in ACTH or TSH. In contrast, in a series of 75 short (<...
Recent studies have shown a relationship between vitamin D status and growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1). The objective of this study was to assess vitamin D status in children with GH deficiency due to pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS) and to investigate ...
Between 40 and 60% of such patients merit consideration for GH therapy in adult life depending on the definition of severe GH deficiency in use. Patients with isolated GH deficiency should undergo two provocative tests of GH secretion, but those with additional anterior pituitary hormone deficiencies...
To discuss the approach to patients diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) in childhood during the transition period from puberty to adulthood, focusing on the following: (1) physiology; (2) effects of recombinant human GH (rhGH) interruption/reinstitution after adult height achievement; (...
