Ghrelin Plasma Levels in Patients with Idiopathic Short Stature

Hormone Research in Paediatrics, 2010
<i>Background:</i> Novel molecular insights have suggested that ghrelin may be involved in the pathogenesis of some forms of short stature. Recently, growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) mutations that segregate with short stature have been reported.

The Effect of Adolescent Experience on Labor Market Outcomes: The Case of Height [PDF]

Taller workers receive a wage premium, and the disparity in wages is similar in magnitude to the race and gender gaps. We exploit the variation in an individual’s height over time to explore the ways in which height affects wages.
