Hepatotoxicity and cutaneous reactions after antithyroid drug administration.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To study the reproducibility of 24-h serum growth hormone (GH) concentration profiles in adults. DESIGN:24-h serum GH concentrations were constructed by drawing blood samples at 20-min intervals. Four study occasions over a period of 1 year were chosen to assess the reproducibility. SUBJECTS:Six healthy adu...
