Comparative effect of two doses of growth hormone for growth hormone deficiency. The Dutch Growth Hormone Working Group.

The comparative effect and safety of 2 IU compared with 4 IU/m2/day of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) was studied in 38 growth hormone deficient children regarding the impact of several factors on short term (one year) and long term (three year) growth response. In 21 newly diagnosed patients, three years of rhGH treatment resulted in a significant increase of height velocity SD score,...

Catch-up growth in early treated patients with growth hormone deficiency. Dutch Growth Hormone Working Group.

Catch-up growth of 26 children with growth hormone deficiency during four years of growth hormone treatment, which was started young (< 3 years), was compared with that of 16 children with coeliac disease on a gluten free diet. In children with growth hormone deficiency mean (SD) height SD score increased from -4.3 (1.8) to -1.9 (1.4) and in patients with coeliac disease from -1.8 (0.9) to -0.1...

تأثیر پلی مورفیسم های ژن های هورمون رشد growth hormone و گیرنده ژن هورمون رشد growth hormone receptor روی برخی صفات اقتصادی بز مرغز ایران

در این پژوهش به بررسی وجود پلی مورفیسم در ناحیه پروموتور و اگزون 10 ژن های gh و ghr و ارتباط آنها با صفات رشد در بزهای مرغز پرداخته شد. بدین منظور از سیاهرگ وداج تعداد 160 بز مرغز موجود در ایستگاه اصلاح نژاد استان کردستان خونگیری و dna نمونه ها با استفاده از کیت استخراج گردید. قطعه 391 جفت بازی از ژن gh و 361 جفت بازی از ژن ghr تکثیر شدند. از تفاوت چندشکلی فضایی تک رشته ها (sscp) و توالی یابی ب...

Diagnosis of Growth Hormone Deficiency and Growth Hormone Stimulation Tests

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...
