- W2006805943 abstract "The aim of this study was to test the effect of growth hormone (GH) therapy on final height in peripubertal boys with idiopathic short stature in whom a subnormal integrated concentration of GH ( < 3.2 µg/l) was found. Twenty-eight peripubertal children were studied. Height was below 2 SD for age, growth velocity was < 4.5 cm/year, bone age was more than 2 SD below mean for age and GH response to provocative tests was more than 10 µg/l. Eleven subjects (group B) were treated with recombinant GH 0.75 unit/kg/week, divided into 3 weekly doses for 2 years, and then the same weekly dose divided into daily injections was administered until final height was attained. Seventeen untreated children (group A) who were followed until cessation of growth served as controls. The GH-treated patients reached their target heights (-2.1 ± 0.5, mean ± SD in SDS) and predicted heights (-1.8 + 0.8) determined by the Bayley and Pinneau method, while the final heights of the untreated patients were significantly lower than their target heights and their predicted final heights (-2.7 ± 0.7, -1.8 ± 1.0 and -2.7 ± 0.7, respectively). The main effect of GH was observed during the 1 st year of treatment when height velocity was significantly higher in the GH-treated group than in the untreated one (9.3 ± 2.1 vs. 5.3 ± 1.1 respectively, p < 0.001). The high cost of the treatment in this specific age group should be weighed against the results." @default.
