Effect of growth hormone to spinal growth and recombinant human growth hormone to scoliosis [PDF]
Growth hormone (GH) plays a key role in human growth and development. In addition to promoting height growth, GH affects bone metabolism, bone size, and bone mineral density (BMD) in children and adolescents by affecting bone formation and resorption. Among them, the effect of GH on spinal growth has been widely concerned.
