Article Synopsis
- The study assessed how accurate insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is for screening children for growth hormone deficiency (GHD), focusing on kids with short stature or slow growth.
- Out of 298 examined children, only 60 were diagnosed with GHD, but IGF-1 levels did not show a significant difference between those with and without the deficiency.
- The findings indicate that IGF-1 alone is not effective for GHD screening, suggesting the need for developing better predictive biomarkers.
