Indexes of abdominal adiposity in patients with type 2 diabetes.

abstract：:Pegvisomant, a GH receptor antagonist, is a new pharmaceutical approach to acromegaly. It enables IGF-I levels to return in the age- and sex-reference range in approximately 90% of patients. This new approach is particularly beneficial in those patients who do not experience control of hormone hypersecretion after sur...
