Growth hormone secretory dynamics in children with precocious puberty
1987
We investigated whether an increase in growth hormone secretion contributed to the growth spurt in children with precocious puberty by measuring the 24-hour profile of serum growth hormone in 51 patients with central precocious puberty. Girls with central precocious puberty had significantly greater mean 24-hour levels of growth hormone in comparison with normal prepubertal girls (5.1±0.5 SEM vs 3.4±0.3 ng/mL, P
