Serum concentrations of tumour necrosis factor alpha in childhood chronic inflammatory bowel disease.
TL;DR: Production of TNF alpha may be associated with growth failure in relapse of colonic inflammatory bowel disease and it may diminish pituitary growth hormone release.

Specificities of inflammatory bowel disease in childhood.
TL;DR: Observations on the familiality of paediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) suggest that genetic susceptibility is particularly important to disease pathogenesis in young patients.

TL;DR: In a unique group of children, growth failure is an early, "prepatterned" manifestation of IBD, and the inflammatory process, rather than steroid use, has a predominant influence on the development of growth faltering.

Growth hormone secretion during sleep
TL;DR: In this paper, growth hormone (GH), insulin, cortisol, and glucose were measured during sleep on 38 nights in eight young adults, and the effects of 6-CNS-active drugs on sleep-related GH secretion were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth hormone secretion during sleep
TL;DR: Altered hypothalamic activity associated with initiation of sleep results in a major peak of growth hormone secretion unrelated to hypoglycemia or changes in cortisol and insulin secretion.
