الوصف: In children with Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS), the standard growth hormone (GH) dose often results in high immunoreactive IGF-I levels. These high immunoreactive IGF-I levels lead to concern because their long-term effects are unknown. As a result, clinicians have to lower the GH dose, which worsens body composition and quality of life. As clinical features do not seem to correspond to immunoreactive IGF-I values, it is questionable whether immunoreactive IGF-I is a suitable marker for GH dosing, or whether another parameter better reflects IGF-I bioavailability and bioactivity. We, therefore, investigate serum immunoreactive IGF-I, free IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels in 70 GH-treated children with PWS. Our study showed that, although immunoreactive IGF-I levels were high (>2 SDS) in the vast majority of prepubertal and pubertal children, free IGF-I SDS levels were 2 SDS in GH-treated children with PWS.
