Patients with a Diagnosis of Growth Hormone Deficiency via the Glucagon Stimulation Test

GH category (mean ± SEM) Cutoff for the category Percentage (N)
sGHD (1.38 ± 0.09) 45%
Peak GH ≤3 μg/L (N = 105)
mGHD (4.54 ± 0.09) 17%
Peak GH 3.1–5.0 μg/L (N = 41)
nGHD (10.97 ± 0.60): 38%
Peak GH ≥5.1 μg/L (N = 89)

The majority of patients had a diagnosis of severe growth hormone deficiency (sGHD).

GH, growth hormone; SEM, standard error of the mean; mGHD. moderate growth hormone deficiency; nGHD, no growth hormone deficiency.
