This study looked at whether growth hormone therapy can improve muscle strength, power, and body composition in short prepubertal boys, both those with growth hormone deficiency and those with idiopathic short stature. Thirty short boys received growth hormone injections for 12 m…

This completed trial tested a personalized program of physical activity, nutrition guidance, and education for 128 adults with Prader-Willi syndrome. Participants followed the program during a 5-week hospital stay, with the goal of stabilizing or reducing their body mass index (B…

This early study tested whether a naturally occurring hormone called kisspeptin can stimulate reproductive hormones and help women with hypothalamic amenorrhea (a condition where periods stop due to low hormone levels) release eggs. Thirteen women received pulsatile injections of…

This study looked at whether testosterone replacement therapy can improve dry eye symptoms in men with low testosterone. Researchers measured tear quality and eye surface health in 77 men before and during treatment. The goal was to see if hormone therapy could help manage dry ey…

This phase 2 study tested whether pitolisant, a drug that promotes wakefulness, can safely reduce excessive daytime sleepiness in people with Prader-Willi syndrome. The trial enrolled 65 participants aged 6 to 65 and compared pitolisant to a placebo over 11 weeks, followed by an …

This study tested whether giving testosterone to older women with chronic back pain and low testosterone could improve pain, physical function, and quality of life. 36 women received weekly injections of either testosterone or a placebo for several weeks. The goal was to see if t…

This study tested whether oxytocin nasal spray, sometimes called the 'love hormone,' can improve behavior and eating problems in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome. Fifty participants received either oxytocin or a placebo daily or every three days for 28 days. Researchers measured…

This study looked at people with low or no GnRH, a hormone that controls puberty and fertility. Researchers studied 111 adults and teens to understand how GnRH problems affect the body. The goal was to find new hormone patterns and genetic causes, not to test a treatment.

This study looked at 112 people with known differences in their sex chromosomes (X and Y) to better understand how these variations affect health, especially infertility. Participants underwent physical exams, blood and urine tests, imaging, and sensory checks over about 5 days. …

This study looked at how a drug that blocks opioids (naloxone) affects hormone signals in the brain related to testosterone. 23 men with a condition called hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (low testosterone) took part. The goal was to understand the body's hormone control, not to tr…

This completed observational study at Uşak University examined 150 adults hospitalized in the endocrinology department. Researchers measured breathing, muscle strength, pain, fatigue, sleep quality, physical activity, balance, and nerve function. The goal was to better understand…

This completed study looked at how appetite-regulating hormones change in infants with Prader-Willi syndrome during the first four years of life. Researchers collected blood samples from 215 infants to understand why they switch from poor feeding to severe overeating and obesity.…

This study looked at whether giving older men testosterone for a few weeks, with or without resistance exercise, could create a lasting 'muscle memory' that makes it easier to regain muscle later. Forty-five sedentary men aged 55-70 received either testosterone or placebo injecti…

This study tested whether a new liquid form of follitropin alfa (a hormone used for fertility) works the same as the standard powder form. Fifty-five healthy men with low testosterone levels were given both versions at different times. The goal was to compare how the drug is abso…

This completed Phase 2 trial tested a natural hormone called kisspeptin in 18 adults with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, a condition where the body doesn't produce enough sex hormones. Participants received different doses of kisspeptin to see how it affected hormone pulses. The …

This study tested whether people with hypopituitarism (a condition where the pituitary gland doesn't work properly) have lower oxytocin levels compared to healthy individuals. Researchers gave participants a drug called exenatide (a GLP1 receptor agonist) to see if it could stimu…

This study looked at 500 children who had surgery for a rare brain tumor called craniopharyngioma. Researchers used MRI scans to grade how much the tumor damaged a key brain area (the hypothalamus). They found that more damage was linked to higher rates of growth hormone deficien…

This study reviewed medical records of 12 children with CHARGE syndrome who had cochlear implant surgery. Researchers looked at their ear bone structure and surgical challenges to find ways to make the operation safer. The goal is to help surgeons better prepare for the unique an…

This completed study looked at whether a blood test for a substance called ADMA can measure blood vessel health in children with growth hormone deficiency or those born small for their age. Researchers compared ADMA levels to ultrasound measurements of artery function in 23 child…

This completed study involved 40 families of children with growth hormone deficiency. Researchers used data from connected injector devices and family surveys to develop a personalized growth hormone treatment profile (PGTP) report. The goal is to help doctors create more tailore…
