Established indications for somatropin (growth hormone) include growth hormone deficiency in children, Turner s syndrome, Noonan s syndrome, and renal insufficiency in children. Other well-studied indications include idiopathic short stature, adult growth hormone deficiency, osteoporosis, and catabolic states associated with acute and chronic illness and injury. Body composition, respiratory muscle function, physical strength, and height improved in a 12-month trial of somatropin in 54 children with Prader-Willi syndrome (1). [Pg.508]

In kwashiorkor and other severe vitamin A deficiencies in children, a single intramuscular injection of 30 mg of retinol as the water-miscible palmitate has been advocated, followed by intermittent oral treatment with retinoids. [Pg.620]

Vitamin B12 deficiency also occurs when the region of the distal ileum that absorbs the vitamin B12-intrinsic factor complex is damaged, as when the ileum is involved with inflammatory bowel disease, or when the ileum is surgically resected. In these situations, radioactively labeled vitamin B12 is not absorbed in the Schilling test, even when intrinsic factor is added. Other rare causes of vitamin B,2 deficiency include bacterial overgrowth of the small bowel, chronic pancreatitis, and thyroid disease. Rare cases of vitamin B12 deficiency in children have been found to be secondary to congenital deficiency of intrinsic factor and congenital selective vitamin Bi2 malabsorption due to defects of the receptor sites in the distal ileum. [Pg.748]
