AbstractObjectivesIdiopathic short stature (ISS) is a recognized, albeit a controversial indication for treatment with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH).The objective of the present study was to conduct a systematic review of the literature and meta-analyses of selected studies about the use of rhGH in children with ISS on linear growth and adult height (AH).MethodsA systematic literature search was conducted to identify relevant studies published till February 28, 2017 in the following databases: Medline (PubMed), Scopus and Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials. After exclusion of duplicate studies, 3,609 studies were initially identified. Of those, 3,497 studies were excluded during the process of assessing the title and/or the abstract. The remaining 112 studies were evaluated further by assessing the full text; 21 of them fulfilled all the criteria in order to be included in the current meta-analysis.ResultsChildren who received rhGH had significantly higher height increment at the end of the first year, an effect that persisted in the second year of treatment and achieved significantly higher AH than the control group. The difference between the two groups was equal to 5.3 cm (95% CI: 3.4–7 cm) for male and 4.7 cm (95% CI: 3.1–6.3 cm) for female patients.ConclusionIn children with ISS, treatment with rhGH improves short-term linear growth and increases AH compared with control subjects. However, the final decision should be made on an individual basis, following detailed diagnostic evaluation and careful consideration of both risks and benefits of rhGH administration.
