Objective: Human GH treatment of short children who had intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) results in a highly variable growth response. The object of this study was to test the hypothesis that differences in responsiveness to exogenously administered GH might reflect differences in endogenous GH secretion or sensitivity. DESIGN Prospective study evaluating the growth response to GH therapy in short individuals with prior IUGR. Patients: Ten short, prepubertal children with prior IUGR were studied. Mean age was 6 years (3.39-8.61). Mean bone age was 4.6 years (2.3-8.3). Mean body mass index was 13.2 kg/m 2 (9.9-14.0; normal 13.5-19.0). Measurements: Overnight spontaneous GH release was measured using a constant withdrawal pump and stimu...
