Short stature and ovarian failure are characteristic features of Turner's syndrome. Although recombinant human growth hormone is commonly used to treat the short associated with this syndrome, a randomized, placebo-controlled trial needed document whether such treatment increases adult height. Furthermore, it not known childhood estrogen replacement combined therapy provides additional benefit. We examined independent effects early, ultra-low-dose on height in girls

Background: The short stature homeobox-containing gene, SHOX, located on the distal ends of X and Y chromosomes, encodes a homeodomain transcription factor responsible for significant proportion long-bone growth. Patients with mutations or deletions including those Turner syndrome (TS) who are haploinsufficient have variable degrees growth impairment, without spectrum skeletal anomalies consistent dyschondrosteosis.

We investigated factors associated with to plateau (TTWP) in tirzepatide‐treated participants or overweight post‐hoc analysis SURMOUNT‐1 SURMOUNT‐4 trials. Participants adherent tirzepatide achieving ≥5% loss by primary endpoint (week 72 SURMOUNT‐1; week 88 SURMOUNT‐4) were included. Weight was defined as change <5% 12‐week interval all subsequent intervals. TTWP from...

Patients with mutations or deletions of the Short Stature Homeobox-containing(SHOX) gene have variable degrees growth impairment, without mesomelic skeletal dysplasia. If untreated, short patients SHOX deficiency remain in adulthood. Growth hormone (GH) treatment improves short-term linear growth; however, there are no data on GH effects final height.In a retrospective study, we assessed relative height gain (n = 14; 12 females) and Turner syndrome (TS) 158). were included if they fulfilled...
