medicine | PAPP-A levels in adults with growth hormone deficiency at baseline and after growth hormone replacement is evaluated: 14 growth hormone deficiency adults are evaluated at baseline and after 1 year of growth hormone therapy. All patients are compared at baseline with 28 age-, sex- and body mass index (BMI)-matched control subjects. At baseline, growth hormone deficiency adults show higher PAPP-A levels and higher leptin, fibrinogen and highly sensitive C-reactive protein values than controls. Therapy with growth hormone reduces PAPP-A and fibrinogen levels while increased BMI and reduced waist-hip ratio are observed | Homo sapiens |
