Neonatal Symptoms in Pediatric Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency: Prevalences and Insights
In our cohort of pediatric patients with idiopathic GHD, the prevalences of neonatal signs and symptoms of GHD was low, except for neonatal hypoglycemia observed in 27.9% of the analyzed patients. Although these are not specific signs of idiopathic GHD, it is beneficial to investigate this information in the medical history during the clinical assessment of the child.
