pubmed:abstractText |
In the intermediate term, recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy in a dose of 28-30 i.u./m2/week accelerates growth significantly in most pubertal patients with growth retardation secondary to chronic renal insufficiency (CRI), dialysis and after renal transplantation (RTx), without evidence of adverse effects or acceleration of bone maturation. Therefore, rhGH therapy may well improve the final height of these patients.
