Two hundred and thirty six children with untreated lymphoblastic leukaemia were compared for height with the normal population by calculation of their mean standard deviation score. As a group, they proved to be significantly taller (P less than 0.0001), which gives support to the theory that growth hormone or a somatomedin may be involved in the development of the disease.
通过计算平均标准差得分,对236名未经治疗的淋巴细胞白血病患儿与正常人群的身高进行了比较。结果显示,作为一个群体,他们明显更高(P小于0.0001),这支持了生长激素或生长调节素可能参与该疾病发展的理论。
