Introduction: GH stimulates the production of IGF1; however, their metabolic effects are different. GH has lipolytic and anti-insulin actions while IGF1 has insulin-like actions.

Objectives: To investigate the value of using the IGF1/GH peak ratio in relation to the anthropometric data of children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) before and after a year of GH therapy.

Patients and Methods: 22 short children with GHD (HtSDS < -2, with peak GH response to provocation < 7 mcg/L) were studied. Their IGF1 level and their peak GH response to provocation were analyzed in relation to their growth data for 1 year on GH treatment (0.3 to 0.5 mg/kg/day) for 1 year.

Results: summarized in 3 tables

IGF1/GHP ratio correlated better with the growth parameters compared to IGF1SDS, both before and after a year of GH. IGF1/GHP ratio correlated significantly with IGF1 increment and weight gain/day after 1 year of GH therapy.

Conclusion: The IGF1/GHP ratio has a good predictive value of growth response to GH therapy in GHD children
