Analysis of body height was performed in the control group of 500 well-fertile men and in 829 patients with various forms of testicular pathology such as hypoplasia of testicles, unilateral and bilateral cryptorchism, hypogonadotrophic eunuchodism, and Klinefelter's syndrome. A statistically greater average height was found in bilateral cryptorchids, unilateral cryptorchids with an adequate spermiogenesis, hypogonadotrophic eunuchoids and chromatin-positive men. The greatest difference, when compared with the control group, was found in patients with a Klinefelter's syndrome. The authors hold the view that the plasmatic testosterone values are not the only factor conditioning the termination of the process of growth into height in males. Importance must also be given to the lowered sensibility of epiphysial growth zones to male sex hormone; this reduced sensibility is especially to be seen in chromatin-positive men.
对500名生育能力良好的男性对照组以及829名患有各种形式睾丸病理状况的患者进行了身高分析，这些患者包括睾丸发育不全、单侧和双侧隐睾症、促性腺激素分泌不足性类无睾症以及克兰费尔特综合征。在双侧隐睾症患者、精子发生正常的单侧隐睾症患者、促性腺激素分泌不足性类无睾症患者和染色质阳性男性中，发现平均身高在统计学上更高。与对照组相比，克兰费尔特综合征患者的差异最大。作者认为，血浆睾酮值并非决定男性身高生长过程终止的唯一因素。还必须重视骨骺生长区对雄性激素敏感性降低的情况；这种敏感性降低在染色质阳性男性中尤为明显。
