We observed that some of the patients that referred to the Pediatric Endocrinology Clinic due to short stature or poor weightgain were carriers of [beta]-thalassemia.[thefreelibrary.com]
Two patients had dyspnea and weightgain; one of them was later found to have moderate aortic stenosis. Table 2.[annals.org]

Additional characteristic features, such as microcephaly, protruding forehead, saddlenose, small chin, and high-pitched voice, may raise clinical suspicion [ 212, 217 ]. Serum IGF-I concentrations must be abnormally low for age and gender.[karger.com]

Treatment with these agents is associated with improved glucose control and weight loss ( 7 ).[doi.org]

We suggest sex steroid priming prior to provocative GH testing in prepubertal boys older than 11 and in prepubertal girls older than 10 years with AH prognosis within -2 SD of the reference population mean in order to prevent unnecessary GH treatment[karger.com]
Etiology IGF-I deficiency is caused by homozygous mutations in the insulin-like growth factor 1 gene ( IGFI ; 12q22-q24.1). IGF-I is essential for foetal and postnatal growth, brain development and metabolism.[orpha.net]

Pathophysiology/Complications Abstract OBJECTIVE Obesity is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular complications. The risk depends significantly on adipose tissue distribution.[doi.org]
(Ungraded good practice statement) Pathophysiological and epidemiological observations prompt concern that GH might increase risk of malignancy during or after therapy.[karger.com]
The main role of ALS is the extension of IGF-I half life by protecting it from degradation and preventing the passage of IGF-I to the extravascular compartment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Conclusions Intervention trials in breast cancer prevention would greatly benefit from surrogate response markers which could predict long-term benefit.[annonc.oxfordjournals.org]
Another limitation is the lack of postintervention follow-up, which prevented assessment of the durability of our findings, in particular on adipose tissue distribution.[doi.org]
If these findings are confirmed by others, the plasma concentration of IGFBP-3 could be used to improve the accuracy of predictive models of dementia and as a potential new factor to assist in the development of prevention and treatment strategies.[nature.com]
The consensus panel endorses harm prevention in the treatment of children with GH.[karger.com]
