KISS and POMC concentration depending on the age of the patients.

	< 15 years (n = 12)	15‒18 years (n = 8)	> 18 years (n = 18)
KISS (ng/mL)	1.81 ± 0.37 p=0.999 (A), p=0.517 (B)	1.88 ± 0.56 p=0.739 (C)	1.58 ± 0.45
POMC (ng/mL)	9.11 ± 4.7 p=0.197 (A), p=0.078 (B)	4.95 ± 4.14 p=0.999 (C)	4.92 ± 3.3

Data are presented as mean ± SD; differences between means were analysed using Kruskal–Wallis test.

^Ap when compared patients < 15 years and between 15 and 18 years, ^Bp when compared patients < 15 years and > 18 years, ^Cp when compared patients between 15‒18 and > 18 years.
