Objective: To understand whether characterization into definite growth hormone deficiency (dGHD; peak GH <8 ug/L and identifiable genetic, functional or anatomical cause), short stature unresponsive to stimulation test (SUS; peak GH <8 ug/L but without any identifiable cause) or idiopathic short stature (ISS; peak GH ≥8) can predict the near adult height (NAH) of prepubertal children treated with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH).<p class="a...
