The impact of idiopathic childhood-onset growth hormone deficiency (GHD) on bone mass in subjects without adult GHD
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Despite seemingly adequate growth hormone (GH) treatment during childhood, children with GH deficiency (GHD) have reduced bone mineral density (BMD) at final height. The aim was to evaluate BMD and bone mineral content (BMC) in adults treated for idiopathic childhood-onset (CO) GHD, 18 years after stopping GH treatment.
