Final adult height after growth hormone treatment in patients with Turner syndrome

Hormone Research in Paediatrics Sep 09, 2019

Ahn JM, et al. - In this retrospective study, researchers assessed final adult height (AH) after recombinant human growth hormone (GH) treatment of girls with Turner syndrome (TS), and illustrated the predicting factors for their growth response. The study sample consisted of 73 patients with TS who had GH treatment and reached AH, as well as 14 patients who did not undergo treatment. According to findings, early age GH treatment is effective in improving TS patients' final height standard deviation score (SDS) and height SDS gain. GH administration is, therefore, important at an early age for ultimate height gain.
