A growth chart for girls with Turner syndrome has been prepared using data from four published series of European patients, and evaluated using retrospective data on the heights of girls with Turner syndrome seen at this hospital. The results indicate that calculation of height standard deviation score from this chart allows a reasonable prediction of adult stature in any patient with Turner syndrome. In addition, the results indicate that while oestrogen treatment causes an initial acceleration of growth, it has no significant effect on adult height.
利用来自四个已发表的欧洲患者系列的数据,编制了特纳综合征女孩的生长图表,并使用该医院所见特纳综合征女孩身高的回顾性数据进行了评估。结果表明,根据该图表计算身高标准差评分,可以合理预测任何特纳综合征患者的成人身高。此外,结果表明,虽然雌激素治疗会使生长最初加速,但对成人身高没有显著影响。
