Journal ArticleDOI
Blocked growth hormone-releasing peptide (GHRP-6)-induced GH secretion and absence of the synergic action of GHRP-6 plus GH-releasing hormone in patients with hypothalamopituitary disconnection: evidence that GHRP-6 main action is exerted at the hypothalamic level.
Vera Popovic,Svetozar Damjanovic,Dragan Micic,Marina Djurovic,Carlos Dieguez,Felipe F. Casanueva +5 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that GHRP-6 acts through a double mechanism by actions exerted both at the pituitary and hypothalamic levels, and its action in patients with hypothalamopituitary disconnection is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Traumatic brain injury: neuropathological, neurocognitive and neurobehavioral sequelae
TL;DR: Only few studies recently suggest that with growth hormone (rhGH) replacement in patients with chronic TBI and with abnormal GH secretion, cognitive performance may not change while symptoms related to depression and fatigue improve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth Hormone Research Society perspective on the development of long-acting growth hormone preparations

TL;DR: LAGH compounds may represent an advance over daily GH injections because of increased convenience and differing phamacodynamic properties, providing the potential for improved adherence and outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and constitutional delay of growth and puberty have distinct genetic architectures

TL;DR: The data suggest that CDGP and CHH have distinct genetic profiles, and this finding may facilitate the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with delayed puberty.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macimorelin as a Diagnostic Test for Adult GH Deficiency.
Jose M. Garcia,Beverly M. K. Biller,Márta Korbonits,Vera Popovic,Anton Luger,Christian J. Strasburger,Philippe Chanson,Milica Medic-Stojanoska,Jochen Schopohl,Anna Zakrzewska,Sandra Pekic,Marek Bolanowski,Ronald S. Swerdloff,Christina Wang,Thomas Blevins,Marco Marcelli,Nicola Ammer,Richard Sachse,Kevin C.J. Yuen +18 more
TL;DR: Oral macimorelin is a simple, well-tolerated, reproducible, and safe diagnostic test for AGHD with accuracy comparable to that of the ITT and provides an excellent balance between sensitivity and specificity.
