Objective: To evaluate the variability of growth hormone stimulation tests results and factors affecting it in short children suspected of having growth hormone deficiency.
Design: The cohort included patients with short stature suspected of having growth hormone deficiency, and who underwent a second stimulation test, after the first stimulation test was positive. Testing was done at a single center from May 2014 to October 2017.
Background: Covid-19 testing and disease outcomes according to demographic and neighborhood characteristics must be understood.
Methods: Using aggregate administrative data from a multi-site academic healthcare system in New York from March 1 - May 14, 2020, we examined patient demographic and neighborhood characteristics according to Covid-19 testing and disease outcomes.
Results: Among the 23,918 patients, higher proportions of those over 65 years old, male sex, Hispanic ethnicity, Medicare, or Medicaid insurance had positive tests, were hospitalized, or died than those with younger age, non-Hispanic ethnicity, or private insurance.
