Lymphocyte subsets in renal transplant recipients during growth hormone therapy.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of growth hormone treatment on growth, levels of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and lymphocyte subsets in immunosuppressed renal allograft recipients. METHODS 18 children (aged 8.0-16.6 years) received growth hormone 1 IU/Kg/week daily for two years. Height, IGF-I levels and in 11/18 patients, lymphocyte subsets were evaluated serially. RESULTS Standar...
متن کاملUnmasking other pituitary deficits during growth hormone replacement therapy.
Hypothalamic-pituitary system represents a complex neuroendocrine unit that exerts its influence on the whole organism, by stimulating the target endocrine glands. In turn, the feedback of peripheral hormones strictly controls hypothalamicpituitary activity. In particular, the growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor I (GH-IGF-I axis) plays an important role in modulating other hypothalamic-pi...
متن کاملOptimization of growth hormone therapy in growth hormone deficient children.
Successful treatment with human growth hormone (hGH) was initially reported by Raben in 19581. Although itis well established that pituitary derived or biosynthetic hGH increases the growth rate in growth hormone deficient children, many patients that were treated in the early days have not reached their target height, or attained adult height below the third percentile of population standards ...
متن کاملLack of correlation between growth hormone provocative test results and subsequent growth rates during growth hormone therapy.
OBJECTIVES To determine whether there is a relationship between the peak GH level in pituitary stimulation tests and the growth rate in response to treatment with recombinant human growth hormone (GH). METHODS We identified 24 843 patients in the National Cooperative Growth Study database who had not been treated previously with GH therapy and divided them into three groups according to the p...
متن کاملIncidence of Diabetes Mellitus and Evolution of Glucose Parameters in Growth Hormone–Deficient Subjects During Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy
OBJECTIVE Growth hormone (GH) deficiency is associated with insulin resistance and diabetes. The aim of the current study was to determine incidence of diabetes during GH replacement therapy (GHRT) and the effect of GHRT on fasting plasma glucose concentrations and HbA(1c) in adult patients with GH deficiency. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 5,143 GH-deficient patients (male 49.9%; mea...
