  • Title: [Somatomedin and growth hormone in patients with retarded growth and atrophy due to congenital heart disease or malabsorption (author's transl)].
    Author: Kerpel-Fronius E, Kiss S, Kardos G, Gács G.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd (1902); 1977 Aug; 125(8):783-6. PubMed ID: 904638.
    Abstract:
    Serum somatomedin activity was found to be very low in cases of growth retardation and malnutrition due to congenital heart disease and to malabsorption, respectively. Growth hormone levels in these cases were slightly elevated. The possible role of low somatomedin activity in the origin of growth retardation due to organic diseases is discussed.
