Popis: OBJECTIVE: Some features of subjects with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) resemble those seen in growth hormone deficiency (GHD). Children with PWS are treated with growth hormone (GH), which has substantially changed their phenotype. Currently, young adults with PWS must discontinue GH after attainment of adult height when they do not fulfil the criteria of adult GHD. Limited information is available about the prevalence of GHD in adults with PWS. This study aimed to investigate the GH/insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) axis and the prevalence of GHD in previously GH-treated young adults with PWS.DESIGN: Cross-sectional study in 60 young adults with PWS.MEASUREMENTS: Serum IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels, GH peak during combined growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH)-arginine stimulation test.RESULTS: Serum IGF-I was CONCLUSIONS: In a large group of previously GH-treated young adults with PWS, approximately 1 in 7 exhibited a GH peak
