BRAF mutations in an Italian cohort of thyroid cancers.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Final adult height is determined by both childhood and pubertal growth. The later is a function of growth velocity and bone maturation, and both are regulated by growth hormone. In a study of the safety and efficacy of GH therapy, we analysed the impact of age on bone maturation and predicted adult height. P...

This limits therapy to the peripubertal years whereas the greatest gain in height is in the prepubertal years. Prepubertal growth is largely GH dependent and previous wor...
