Reproducibility of 24-hour serum growth hormone profiles in man.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Mutations in the GH releasing hormone receptor (GHRH-R) have recently been shown to cause autosomal recessive isolated GH deficiency (IGHD). Patients who are homozygous for GHRH-R mutations have a subnormal GH response to pharmacological agents that stimulate GH secretion and an appropriate response to exogen...
