Previous studies on normal andhypopituitary adults have demonstrated that administration
of human growth hormone (HGH) is associated with changes in blood sugar (BS),'-free fatty
acids (FFA)," 4 insulin like activity (ILA),'and plasma immunoreactive insulin (IRI).'The
following investigation was carried out to study the acute effects of HGH on serum IRI, BS,
and plasma FFA concentrations in normal and hypopituitary children.
