Abstract Idiopathic short stature (ISS) is a term used to describe the status of children with short stature that cannot be attributed to a specific cause. Many children diagnosed as having ISS have partial GH insensitivity, which can result from disturbances at various points of the GH-IGF-I axis.

Although tall stature in itself is not a medical problem, underlying pathology should be ruled out as this may be associated with significant morbidity or even mortality. (Family) history, physical examination and evaluation of the growth chart should focus on signs of a syndromic cause, such as macrocephaly, disproportion, dysmorphic features and ...

Short stature homeoboxcontaining gene and idiopathic short stature
Expert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2009The term idiopathic short stature (ISS) refers to patients who are short due to various unknown reasons. Although it is clear that multiple factors contribute to final height, genetic factors play a crucial role. Mutations of a human homeobox gene, short stature homeobox-containing (SHOX) gene, have been shown to be associated with the short stature ...

Adult height and growth patterns are largely genetically programmed. Studies in twins have indicated that the heritability of height is high (>80%), suggesting that genetic variation is the main determinant of stature. Height exhibits a normal (Gaussian) distribution according to sex, age, and ancestry.

The diagnostic term, idiopathic short stature, has emerged over the past 30 years and refers to children with short stature of unknown etiology. Controversy exists regarding the scope of the diagnosis and options for its treatment. This article reviews origins of the diagnosis idiopathic short stature and current diagnostic criteria, scientific ...

ABSTRACT: The study series consisted of 100 women and 100 men over the age of 45 who remembered their heights at the age of 20. Ninety women and 36 men also recalled their weights at age 20. The combined cortical thickness and the cortical index of both clavicles were measured, as well as the height and weight ...

SXATUR~, the quantitative measure of height, varies widely within each ethnic group with a fairly normal distribution. Of the numerous patients whom the physi, clan encounters because of short stature, relatively few are pathologically small in the context of family and ethnic background.

Growth (including short stature and tall stature)
2020• Growth occurs in three separate phases, all of which are under different nutritional and/or hormonal controls: ◦ infantile (mainly nutritional) ◦ childhood (hormonal, mainly growth hormone (GH)) ◦ pubertal (hormonal; GH and sex steroids ...
