Macimorelin as a Diagnostic Test for Adult GH Deficiency
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2018 Purpose The diagnosis of adult GH deficiency (AGHD) is challenging and often requires confirmation with a GH stimulation test (GHST). The insulin tolerance test (ITT) is considered the reference standard GHST but is labor intensive, can cause severe ...
