Summary

This study looked at children with idiopathic short stature (short stature with no known cause) who had already received growth hormone treatment for at least a year before puberty. The goal was to find genetic differences between those who responded well and those who did not. No new treatments were given—only existing medical records and a single clinic visit were used. The study was terminated early after enrolling 43 participants.
