Growth Hormone Stimulation Tests in Assessing Adult Growth . . . Adult growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a clinical syndrome that can manifest either as isolated or associated with additional pituitary hormone deficiencies Its clinical features are subtle and nonspecific, requiring GH stimulation testing to arrive at a correct diagnosis
Diagnosing and Treating Patients for Adult Growth Hormone . . . Laboratory measurements such as IGF-1 or a single growth hormone measurement have poor diagnostic value because of the overlap with healthy adults, particularly those older than 40 A GH stimulation test, therefore, is typically required to establish the diagnosis Yuen KCJ, et al Endocr Pract 2019;25(11):1191-1232 Gabreanu GR
Diagnosis and testing for growth hormone deficiency across . . . In this article, we provide a global overview of the accuracy and cut-offs for diagnosis of GHD in children and adults and discuss the caveats in conducting and interpreting these tests Key words: growth hormone deficiency, children, adults, diagnosis, testing, insulin tolerance test, glucagon, macimorelin, clonidine
American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists and . . . Results: Testing for confirmation of adult GHD should only be considered if there is a high pretest probability, and the intent to treat if the diagnosis is confirmed The insulin tolerance test (ITT) and glucagon stimulation test (GST) are the two main tests used in the United States

Adult growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a clinical syndrome that can manifest either as isolated or associated with additional pituitary hormone deficiencies Its clinical features are subtle and nonspecific, requiring GH stimulation testing to arrive at a correct diagnosis However, diagnosing adult GHD can be challenging due to the episodic and pulsatile endogenous GH secretion
