Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of recombinant human growth hormone(r- hGH)replacement therapy on glucose metabolism in children with growth hormone deficiency(GHD) Methods Replacement therapy with domestic r - hGH was done in 15 children with GHD for 3 months. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin .releasing test (IRT) were performed before and after 3 months of r-hGH replacement therapy. Venous blood was sampled before and 30,60,120 min after glucose load for measurements of plasma glucose (PG) and insulin (INS).Results OGTT were normal in 15 patients before treatment. After 3 months of r-hGH therapy, fasting plasma glucose remained unchanged, but PG 30 min(P
