The relationship between height velocity and growth hormone secretion in short prepubertal children.
We have performed 24 h growth hormone (GH) profiles in 50 short prepubertal children aged between 5.2 and 12.9 years, growing with height velocity standard deviation scores (SDS) between 0.4 and -3.9. There was an asymptotic relationship between height velocity and spontaneous GH secretion described...
