pubmed:abstractText |
There is a considerable heterogeneity in metabolic phenotype among equally obese subjects. Impaired GH secretion is frequent in obese patients, with GH secretion reduced up to levels that are comparable to those found in adult patients with organic GH deficiency (GHD). Low GH status exerts detrimental effects onmetabolic abnormalities in organic GHD patients. The aim of this observational, retrospective study was to investigate the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) in moderately-severely obese subjects who met criteria for GDH (GHD) and in those with normal GH status (GH sufficient: GHS).
