Treatment with growth hormone (GH) is not approved for idiopathic short stature (ISS) in Europe.
To compare the growth of children treated with isolated GH deficiency (IGHD) vs. ISS-treated and untreated children.
A retrospective descriptive study of patients treated in the last 14 years for IGHD (Group A), in comparison with ISS-treated (Group B) and untreated (Group C) subjects.
Group A had 67 males, who showed a height gain of 1.24 SD. Group B had 30 boys, who showed a height gain of 1.47 SD. Group C had 42 boys, who showed an improvement of 0.37 SD. The final heights were -1.52 SD, -1.31 SD, and -2.03 SD, respectively. Group A and C did not reach their target heights (with differences of 0.27 SD and 0.59 SD, respectively). Group B surpassed their target height by 0.29 SD.
The final heights of the IGHD and treated ISS are similar. Treated groups were taller than untreated groups.
在欧洲,生长激素(GH)治疗特发性矮小症(ISS)未获批准。
比较孤立性生长激素缺乏症(IGHD)患儿与接受生长激素治疗和未接受治疗的ISS患儿的生长情况。
一项回顾性描述性研究,对过去14年中接受IGHD治疗的患者(A组)与接受生长激素治疗的ISS患者(B组)和未接受治疗的ISS患者(C组)进行比较。
A组有67名男性,身高增长了1.24标准差。B组有30名男孩,身高增长了1.47标准差。C组有42名男孩,身高改善了0.37标准差。最终身高分别为-1.52标准差、-1.31标准差和-2.03标准差。A组和C组未达到其目标身高(分别相差0.27标准差和0.59标准差)。B组超过其目标身高0.29标准差。
IGHD和接受生长激素治疗的ISS患者的最终身高相似。接受治疗的组比未接受治疗的组更高。
